Of the compressed-octave tunings listed, ''36ed511/256'', with a step size about 33.25 cents, performs best in this comparison, approximating all 11-limit primes with less than 36% relative error (<12 cents error).

The [[edonoi]] scales of [[57edt]] and [[101ed7]] are almost exactly the same as 36edo. They are 36edo with the octave stretched by less than 1{{c}}. Their main usage is to optimise 36edo for use as a [[dual-n|dual-5]] tuning, while also making slight improvements to 3/1 and 7/1 as well. So if one intends to use both 36edo’s vals for 5/1 at once, 101ed7 may be worth considering.
