1789edo can be used for the finite "French decimal" temperament - that is, where all the interval targets in just intonation are expressed as terminating decimals. For example, [[5/4]], [[25/16]], [[128/125]], [[32/25]], 625/512, etc | 1789edo can be used for the finite "French decimal" temperament - that is, where all the interval targets in just intonation are expressed as terminating decimals.

Since the 5/4 of 1789edo is on the 576th step, a highly divisible number, 1789edo can replicate a lot of [[Ed5/4]] temperaments - more exactly those which are divisors of 576, and that includes all from [[2ed5/4]] to [[9ed5/4]], skipping [[7ed5/4]]. One such scale which stands for [[4ed5/4]], is a tuning for the [[hemiluna]] temperament in the 1789bd val in the 13-limit. It is also worth noting that 1789bd val is better tuned than the patent val. | Since the 5/4 of 1789edo is on the 576th step, a highly divisible number, 1789edo can replicate a lot of [[Ed5/4]] temperaments - more exactly those which are divisors of 576, and that includes all from [[2ed5/4]] to [[9ed5/4]], skipping [[7ed5/4]].
