Theory
179edo does not approximate well any odd harmonic up to 23, best being 21/16 with 22% error. Nonetheless, it is consistent in the 7-odd-limit and there are a number of temperaments to be considered.
The equal temperament tempers out the parakleisma, [8 14 -13⟩ in the 5-limit, and supports parakleismic and its extensions, providing the optimal patent val for 11- and 13-limit parkleismic temperament. In the 7-limit it tempers out 3136/3125, 4375/4374 and 10976/10935, in the 11-limit 176/175 and 1375/1372 and in the 13-limit 169/168, 325/324, 351/350 and 352/351, providing the optimal patent val for 11- and 13-limit ulmo temperament.
