The Elect Comma

Given that the end of the world didn't come (on the exact 7,000th anniversary of Noah's Flood, which was chosen because a day to God
is like 1,000 years or something...)

I thought, how about the Elect Comma (Using 144,000). Well this is
a pretty ordinary number 2^7 * 3^2 * 5^3, reducing to 1125.

I couldn't find any nice commas, except for one with a p=53, kinda
high, really, for such an ordinary number. The best I found is this

2^15 * 3^2 * 5^3 / 7^5 * 13^3 = 36,864,000 / 36,924,979

which is about 2.86 cents. It multiples the Elect by 256, which
means each tribe now gets 256,000 preachers instead of 1,000.

PGH

Oops 12,000 * 256 = 3,072,000. Need to upgrade for the times.

Well, in 59-EDO it's definitely tempered out (with something else). 8/59 = 162.71 cents and close to 162.85. Let's see

I get <59,94,137|, so 1125 would be |7, 2, 3 > = 1012, which is 9
mod 59 not 8, so it must temper out with something higher, lets say 1140 so I guess 1140/1125 = 76/75 is it.
