24edo is the first edo to have both a [[sqrt(25/24)]] distinct from [[25/24]] and a correct [[5-odd-limit]]. It is thus the first edo which allows to lead the two voices of a major third to a minor third by [[strict contrary motion]]. And vice versa.

Furthermore, in the same fashion, every sequence of intervals available in 12edo are reachable by equal contrary motion in 24edo.
