This proof shows that AG and unconditionally-MV3 scales must have odd size or size 4.

==== An AG scale is unconditionally MV3 iff its cardinality is odd ====
==== An AG scale is unconditionally MV3 iff its cardinality is odd or 4 ====
We only need to see that AG + odd cardinality => MV3. But the argument in case 2 above works for any interval class (MV3 wasn't used), hence any interval class comes in at most 3 sizes regardless of tuning.
