Whereas in meantone it takes four [[3/2]] to get to [[5/1]], here it takes twelve octaves to get to [[134217718/98415]] (tempering out the schisma). So, doing this yields 7-, 10- and 17- or 13-, 16- or 19-note [[mos scale]]s. While the notes are rather farther apart, the scheme is uncannily similar to the [[mohajira]] (within 8/3) temperaments. [[Joseph Ruhf]] calls this the "Macromohajira" Bolivarian mode.
