While we are waiting for George, here is a baseline for comparison:
13-limit schismic:
[[1, 1, 7, 11, 14, 16], [0, 1, -8, -14, -18, -21]]
generator=702.6605069, rms error = 6.012994024
A sister system is this one:
[[1, 1, -10, -6, -3, -1], [0, 1, 21, 15, 11, 8]]
generator = 704.3917105, rms error = 6.209025908
If you up the ante to two 29-equal scales about 16 cents
apart, we have this:
[[29, 46, 67, 81, 100, 107], [0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1]]
generators = [1200/29, 15.82578653], rms error a nice 2.277983572

this last one was made famous by graham.
but i suspect george's scale is not an MOS, but rather a "hyper-MOS";
that is, a periodicity block with *more* than one unison vector *not*
tempered out -- that is, three or fewer are tempered out.

How about none of the above? (Sorry but this will have to
wait, 'cause I'm really busy now.)

I presumed it was not a MOS, which is why I called it a baseline. These MOS seem viable options, however!
