I'll reply on the main tuning list.

That looks intriguing, Paul. I obviously missed the introduction, but I will
certainly have a closer look at this issue. By the way: I finally got to add
something to the linear temperament section on my website. Please let me
know your opinion.

What a great chart!

Obviously you selected a string of ratios that keeps the fifth
just for the diagonal. What happens along the other spokes? and
what are the large triangular areas, where the new spokes start?
In fact, what are the large areas directly surrounding the major
chord? Did you put 6:5:4 in the hub or did it end up there by
itself; in other words, is there just one hub in the middle of
it all, and that's 6:5:4?

Who, by the way, are the Voronoi? Some Star Trek creatures (I
don't have TV, I'm washing the rabio)? And is it possible to
make such a graph one-dimensional for dyads?

(the reason i'm getting lively suddenly instead of reading along
in silent awe or incomprehension is that i often wondered
whether it is possible to express and/or quantize the fact that
the lower-number ratios (odd, no fancy recombinations allowed)
are surrounded by obvious empty spaces and remain that way as
you up the limit.) (one sentence)

in awe

Also, do you get more cells in the same space if you allow a
higher limit for l*m*n or is the structure itself finite?

The former. The cells shrink to zero, but the _ratios between their
areas_ is what appears to be the same, and what would be key to
having a meaningful triadic harmonic entropy function.
