The latest revision says that 19edo is "slightly worse in terms of relative error" than 12edo. This is arguably untrue, as TE relative error and maximum 9-odd-limit relative error are both lower in 19edo than in 12edo. I think this is because the error of primes 3, 5, and 7 are in the same direction, resulting in some cancellations of error involving prime 3 where it would add up in 12edo. How would this sentence best be written?--[[User:Overthink|Overthink]] ([[User talk:Overthink|talk]]) 22:55, 13 February 2026 (UTC) | The latest revision says that 19edo is "slightly worse in terms of relative error" than 12edo.

: I just went by the relative error listed in the table of harmonics. Let me know if you think of something better, or if you want me to just undo it. [[User:Lucius Chiaraviglio|Lucius Chiaraviglio]] ([[User talk:Lucius Chiaraviglio|talk]]) 23:48, 13 February 2026 (UTC) | |||
