Is the following "gammier" has sense for that?

Pierre, Xavier wanted all the major triads as 4:5:6, and all the minor
triads as 16:19:24. But neither Xavier nor John were thinking in terms of a
fixed-pitch 12-tone scale, although I would have thought so to from reading
John's comment:

John, what exactly did you mean by that?
