22 edo underused (and misunderstood) - because ......

I agree that 22 edo is a very interesting and potentially useful tuning,

and it is possible to calculate the size of each of the intervals in
terms of diatonic scale position. e.g. 1 unit of 22 edo is 54.5 cents
= bbII.

You can find all the other diatonic values for 22 edo from this page
by looking for 4, 8, 12 ...... in 88 edo.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_meantone_intervals

for if you were to further divide the intervals into four, you will
find that it becomes 88 edo and very consonant,

because 14 units = Large interval and 9 = small interval.

for some of the other interesting edo's.
