The cent errors are a result of a set of compromises between people of different preference, and being given in cents, are somewhat arbitrary. It should be noted that because the exotemperament bound is very high, it is not meaningful to pretend that the bound is even remotely precise, so that the "<~18c" bound was chosen to allow using [[5edo]] and [[7edo]] as the circle of [[~]][[3/2]]'s to barely qualify as not being exotemperaments, both as such a valuation is potentially contentious and as they may yield interesting simplified logics taking advantage of the damage for error cancellations. | The cent errors are a result of a set of compromises between people of different preference, and being given in cents, are somewhat arbitrary.
