I think it's another system, discussed below. The wedgie you find from
the pyth comma and 5120/5103 gives what we are calling a linear
temperament. It is [0,12,12,-6,-19,19], and has a TM reduced basis
<50/49, 3645/3584>. The mapping is
[[12, 19, 28, 34], [0, 0, -1, -1]]
However, the rms optimum is 23.4 cents apart, not 15.
I think what you want is the linear temperament with wedgie
[0,12,12,-6,-19,19], TM reduced basis
<225/224, 250047/250000> and mapping [[12,19,28,34],[0,0,-1,-1]]. You can
use the 72 or 84 ets for this.
By the way, is 250047/250000 not deserving of a little recognition?
