ED16/9 is the equal division of the the Pythagorean minor seventh (16/9) into n parts.

Division of 16/9 into equal parts can be conceived of as to directly use this interval as an equivalence, or not. The question of equivalence has not even been posed yet. The utility of 16/9 (or another seventh) as a base though, is apparent by being used at the base of so much modern tonal harmony. An ED16/9 can be generated by taking every other tone of an ED4/3, so even-numbered ED16/9s can also be used for Neo-Medieval harmony and such.
