Using a pure 21/16 of 470.78¢ results in an extremely lopsided oneirotonic scale with L/s = 4.60. Harmonically this results in a 9/8 of 212.342722 which is very much in the superpyth range (for comparison, 17edo's 9/8 is 211.765 cents). The "major tritone" in oneirotonic (J-N in Kentaku notation) will be a very flat fifth of 683.123 cents, constrasting with the very sharp 40/21 fifth (729.2 cents). The flat fifths give shimmery detuned versions of zo (subminor) triads 6:7:9 and sus2 triads 8:9:12. All these intervals contribute to the scale's overall gently shimmery quality which the 23edo version shares too. | Using a pure 21/16 of 470.78¢ results in an extremely lopsided oneirotonic scale with L/s = 4.60.
