Polytriadic tunings can be a useful way to approach a tuning that does not possess any consonant small [[MOS scale]]s. This means that most high-complexity, high-accuracy temperaments, including [[microtemperament]]s, could be well suited to polytriadic approaches. This could include some of the temperaments in the columns towards the right of the tables in the [[survey of efficient temperaments by subgroup]].

Polytriadicism can be a useful way to explore very large [[just intonation]] scales, such as very large [[combination product sets]] or [[primodal]] scales, which might not otherwise have an intuitive way to subdivide them, especially if they haven't yet been studied or explored much.

Polytriadicism can also be a useful way to explore ''xenrythmic'' concepts, such as polyrhythms or unusual time signatures, as each triad could be used to harmonically 'label' or 'flag' one particular rhythmic element, helping to more clearly distinguish the different rhythmic lines or concepts in a piece from one another.
