People have long noted, since the early days of the tuning list, that the CTE tuning, despite having very nice qualities on paper, can give surprisingly strange results. One good example is Blackwood, where the 4:5:6 chord is tuned to 0-386-720 cents, so that the error is not even close to evenly divided between the 5/4, 6/5, and 3/2. The reasons for this are subtle.
