17edt is closely related to [[13edt]], the Bohlen-Pierce division, because they share the feature of tempering out 245/243. Both 13edt and 17edt have 4L+5s nonatonic modes, but whereas the ratio of large to small steps in 13edt is a calm 2:1, in 17edt it is a hard 3:1. Thus, the approximation of 5/3 and 7/3 suffers slightly in return for gaining a good approximation of 11/9 (given the context of the weak 5/3 and 7/3), which is in fact the size of the large step. However, by the coincidence of the 11-limit commas 17edt tempers out, 5/3 and 11/9 are off by practically the same amount in opposite directions (+10.7 cents and -11.8 cents), leading to an excellent approximation of 55/27 (only 1.1 cents flat), as are 11/9 and 9/7 (-11.8 cents and +12.4 cents),

leading to an excellent approximation of 11/7 (only .6 cents flat) and these sum to a 16/5 which is only .3 cents flat.

leading to an excellent approximation of 11/7 (only .6 cents flat) and these sum to 605/189-1.7 cents, which is also a 16/5 which is only .3 cents flat (in addition to equaling 256).
