et fretting question

Why does everyone use 22tet instead of 24tet frets on their instruments?
It seems to me, after testing it out on a spreadsheet program, that 22tet
does not imitate 4/3, 16/9, even 9/8 well enough. I do see a better
imitation or ability to play 7/4, 5/4 and quarter tone tetrachords. has
anyone heard a 22tet compared to a 24tet? Is there a noticeable
difference? I guess what it all boils down to, is, what sounds best?
Thank You.
