:::: I could see including 9 when prime 3 is > 25% off. 9 is a pretty small number, and the 9th harmonic is pretty audible on acoustic instruments. But why include all the other non-prime odd numbers? --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 22:11, 6 September 2021 (UTC) | :::: I could see including 9 when prime 3 is > 25% off. 9 is a pretty small number, and the 9th harmonic is pretty audible on acoustic instruments.

::::: [[18edo]] is an example of an edo that has a good 21/16 (-4.1c error) which is inconsistent with the best [[3/2]] and the best [[7/4]]. And it's nice to to be able to gauge the error for, say, 21/17 in an edo just by looking at the direct errors of the best 21 and the best 17. The table is meant to be a quick reference. Besides, aren't 15/8 and 21/16 | ::::: [[18edo]] is an example of an edo that has a good 21/16 (-4.1c error) which is inconsistent with the best [[3/2]] and the best [[7/4]].
