The octave-reduced 13th harmonic, 13/8 (≈840.5276618¢), is closely approximated by 7 steps of 10ed2 (840¢).

13/8 (1.625) is also close to acoustic phi (≈1.618033989).

So, if we divide acoustic phi into 7 steps, then 10 of those steps will bring us quite close to an octave.

This tuning therefore could also be thought of as 10edo with a stretched octave. Since the ratio between acoustic phi and the 10ed2 approximation of the 13th harmonic is ≈0.9917741623, the resulting stretched octave is 2^0.9917741623 = 1.988629015, or ≈1190.128995¢.
