Theory
981edo is a good 13- and 17-limit system. It tempers out 2080/2079, 2401/2400, 2431/2430, 4096/4095, 4225/4224, 4375/4374, 4459/4455 and 4914/4913 in the 17-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 13-limit ennealimmic, the rank-3 temperament tempering out 2080/2079, 2401/2400, and 4375/4374, and for 13-limit ennealimmia, which also tempers out 4096/4095.
