I find these conclusions insupportable. That C-A would be a
Pythagorean major sixth (27:16), while A-F# would be just (5:3) or
near-just major sixths, goes against the key-gradation pattern that
all well-temperaments of the time exhibit. C-A and G-E are the major
sixths closest to just (or very nearly so) in all of them, since they
occur most frequently in the keys with the fewest accidentals in
their key signatures.

But this topic is better for the tuning list, not this list.
