:::::: I can't say anything about that. Considering the precision of 3.7 cents with which any interval is hit in 159edo and the generally accepted detuning degree of 13.7 cents of the major third in 12edo, considerations regarding consistency seem rather remote to me. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 20:47, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

::::::: Actually, if you think about it, the generally accepted detuning of the major third in [[12edo]] still follows the same rules that I'm laying down, as the Syntonic comma ([[81/80]]), which is responsible for that detuning, is smaller than half a step in 12edo, and it's still smaller than half a step in [[24edo]]- the [[Pythagorean comma]] is also less than half of a step in 24edo, so no issues there. However, when you start looking at [[36edo]], [[48edo]] and [[72edo]], suddenly, things don't look as good on this front, this is why I moved on from ~~72edo~~ to ~~another EDO~~. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 21:12, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
