* The major mosthird (made of two large steps) in these tunings tends to be more of a neutral third, ranging from 6\21 (342¢) to 4\13 (369¢), and the temperament interprets it as both [[11/9]] and [[16/13]].

The three major edos in this range, [[13edo]], [[21edo]] and [[34edo]], all nominally support petrtri, but [[34edo]] is close to optimal for the temperament, with a generator only 0.33¢ flat of the 2.5.9.11.13.17 [[POTE]] petrtri generator of 459.1502¢ and 0.73¢ sharp of the 2.9/5.11/5.13/5 POTE (i.e. optimal for the chord 9:10:11:13) petrtri generator of 458.0950¢. If you only care about optimizing 9:10:11:13, then [[55edo]]'s 21\55 (458.182¢) is even better, but 55 is a bit big for a usable edo. Close-to-optimal petrtri tunings such as 34edo may be particularly useful for the Sarnathian mode, as Sarnathian in these tunings uniquely approximates four over-2 harmonics plausibly, namely 17/16, 5/4, 11/8, and 13/8.

The sizes of the generator, large step and small step of oneirotonic are as follows in various petrtri tunings.
