Here are the 7-limit connectivities of the nine note Orwells--I wish I had known about these excellent non-MOS scales when I was doing my Orwell piece! So many scales, so little time ... The notation is the 53-et, where Orwell is 12/53.

Any of these show greater tetrachordality than the original MOS?
