Well thankyou

All this information on tuning is very very interesting, and I think that
I will just go ahead with a 22tet refretting. I hope it works for
experimental music along with ancient greek tetrachord species.

Another explanation for this is that 17 and 19 also provide some close
approximations to 12TET intervals. So they might sound comparatively
ordinary in part merely because we're used to them. That and because
they're pretty close to 3- and 5-based intervals, so 3 and 5 "win".
