Of, course, I suggested to set it to E36, which I think also sounds  
good, but the guy who made the "official" version just went ahead and  
set it to E24.

But that would not solve the underlying problems: transpositions may  
still come out wrong, though less chance, and one cannot reach  
tunings like E53 (Pythagorean).
