722edo is a strong 2.7.19.23 subgroup tuning, with 179\722 being a semiconvergent to the log<sub>2</sub>(19/16). Despite having a strong approximation of 7, it is only consistent upwards to the 5-limit.

Using the 421\722 fifth, it supports a variant of fifth-stacked tuning that divides 38th harmonic into 9 parts, meaning that C - D# in this system is equal to [[19/16]], the otonal minor third. This  creates a peculiar violation of Western theory which would require spelling this minor triad involving 19/16 as C-D#-G instead of C-Eb-G. This can be realized as 355 & 722 2.3.5.17.19.23 temperament from a regular temperament theory perspective - it should be noted that the fifth is not mapped to [[3/2]] but is slightly flatter.

Aside from this, 722bc val tempers out the [[hemifamity comma]] and is a tuning for the [[undecental]] temperament. Since 722 is divisible by 19, the 722dg val is a tuning for the [[kalium]] temperament in the 19-limit.
