The next low-numbered triad after 4:5:6 with a 3/2 on the outside is 6:7:9, but its inversion, 14:18:21, can sound extremely dissonant. On the other hand, you also have 10:13:15, which is another standout triad of low complexity with a fifth on the outside, but its inversion, 26:30:39, is also relatively complex. Tempering out 91/90 makes both of these problems disappear by connecting the two together, such that the utonal inverse of 6:7:9 becomes 10:13:15. Hence, you end up with a tonal system that relates and connects two of the most xenharmonic triads in existence (at least those with 3/2 on the outside). 91/90 tempering thus enriches septimal harmony in this way. | The next low-numbered triad after 4:5:6 with a 3/2 on the outside is 6:7:9, but its inversion, 14:18:21, can sound extremely dissonant.
