More from Robert. This list can be expanded by stacking 612, 720,
732, 744, 756, 768, 780 and 792cents to form a group 16 scales.
The scale stacked from 720cents forms a pentatonic scale.

Moving to 200tet would double the possibilities using this stacking
method.

Mean-tone may not be the best adjective to describe some of these
scales.
