In detailed (but not complete) observations of scrolling through the above table group, I started noticing interesting things, like how the harmonic/subharmonics of the generator have unstable mapping (because no simple ratio with a reasonable sized numerator and denominator fits into this zone), but the 3rd harmonic is nearly rock-solid (and 112b is a respectable if overly-complex quarter-comma meantone approximation), although its mapping causes strange effects in the right-most column of the MOS spectrum table, causing ~13/9 to map to the bright generator in several EDOs in the soft half of the tuning spectrum and to map 1 step sharp of the bright generator in several EDOs in the hard half of the spectrum.  And the mapping of the 53rd harmonic is even more rock-solid as long as the right-most column of the tuning spectrum table is mostly left out (but it even works for the softer members of this column).  And there the 5th harmonic seems very much usable in the soft end of the scale tuning spectrum as long as the EDO sizes don't get too large (and even then, sometimes it is still okay), which looks to me like enabling a 2.3.5.23.53 meantone extension.  The 5th and 53rd harmonics go all over the place in the hard end, but there the 25th harmonic shines and is rock-solid as long as you don't go softer than 36edo (basic), and the 13th harmonic just barely misses being rock-solid in this zone (just barely breaks on 125edo, for which 125f would be not bad); in the soft half of the spectrum, the 13th harmonic always maps to 1 step too many for ~13/9 to be usable as the bright generator, and an 'f' wart would worsen consistency with nearby harmonics, except strangely in most of the right-most column of the tuning spectrum table.  Finally, the ratio ~62/43 (bright generator) or ~43/31 (dark generator) has amazing stability — even though the mapping of its component harmonics is pretty unstable, they co-vary sufficiently well that a wart is needed for proper mapping in only a few places, and in each case the wart does not appear to hurt consistency, at least at a brief inspection.
