: I saw that this has been done to a number of edo pages. The way I use this table is to find the error of a JI ratio in an edo. For 5/3, I subtract prime 3's error from prime 5's error. For 15/14, I add 3 and 5 and subtract 7. Because I'm used to doing all this, I don't need that redundant 9 column. For 9/8, I simply double 3's error. So this table which already is rather wide on the screen now has redundant columns for 9, 15, 21, 25 and 27. So personally I would prefer the old way, prime harmonics only. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 05:37, 6 September 2021 (UTC) | : I saw that this has been done to a number of edo pages.

:: One of the points of using odd tables is to ease inconsistent edos. With some edos with like a really off 3 but accurate 9, the odd table is likely to be helpful. With others the odd table is redundant. It depends on the edo. I propose a general guide: if error of prime 3 < 25%, show the prime table, otherwise odd table, or we may examine it case-by-case.
