Temperaments
Analogous to tempering out the diesis, which divides the octave into three sharp 5/4's, tempering out the threedie divides the tritave into three slightly flat 13/9's, since (13/9)3/3 = 2197/2187. Furthermore, tempering out the threedie divides 9/8 into three instances of 27/26. 596edo provides the optimal patent val for the corresponding rank-5 temperament.
It factors into simpler commas in the 2.3.5.13 subgroup as (325/324)(676/675), and tempering out both of them leads to the 2.3.5.13 kleismic temperament (also known as cata). It can also be expressed in the 2.3.7.13 subgroup as (169/168)/(729/728), i.e. S13/S27.
