256edo is contorted in the 5-limit, and the error of harmonic 7 leads to inconsistency, which is likely one of the reasons this EDO attracts little interest. 256edo is good at the 2.23.43.47 subgroup. If the error below 40% is considered "good", 256edo can be used to play no-fives 17 limit.
256edo can also be played using non-contorted harmonics, no matter how bad the approximation. Under such rule, 256edo supports the 2.7.13.19 subgroup. In the 2.7.13.19 subgroup in the patent val, 256edo tempers out 32851/32768, and supports the corresponding 20 & 73 & 256 rank 3 temperament.
