Tuning 72-et with flat octaves

Here's an option to ponder: if you tune the octaves 3/4 of cent flat,
the 3's and 5's will be nearly pure, and the 7 will be 4/3 of a cent
sharp.

3's and 7's are not in the same octave by definition, so no.

Still it only applies to one specific form of the chord, and has no
real benefit for any others. /Ö
