if a step is an odd number of generators (can always ensure this by taking octave complements of all the generators). The first two sizes must occur the same number of times. QED.

''Once you have chosen a rank-3 temperament and a specific generator interval, there is a mechanical procedure to generate all max-variety-3 scales of a certain size (of which there are, however, infinitely many).''
