Sextilimeans: maybe FloraC misread the mapping? subgroup is no-threes, it's 2.5.7.11.13 and it is the 5th harmonic that is reached 482 generators down.

Sextilimeans is like sextilififths, but the fourth that is divided into 6 in sextilififths is tuned to a meantone fourth in the optimal tuning, or about 1/4.26-commma meantone. It should be noted, however, that this meantone fourth is not ~4/3 despite that the name may suggest so. In fact, the 3rd harmonic is mapped to -482 generator steps. It is described as the 229 & 1789 temperament.

It is described as the 229 & 1789 temperament.
