RE: [tuning-math] Re: geometric complexity

First of all, i don't know where you're getting just linear ones from.

Secondly, i don't see what there is about a Euclidean, as opposed to a
triangular-taxicab, metric that is going to be reflective of how we hear. In
fact, it would seem especially important at the 9-limit and above to deviate
from Euclid.

I want a measure which applies to all temperaments, not just linear ones.
