SQRT(7):1 | Irrational Octave Microtones

A murky theme in 12ed√7, also described as an octave ratio of √7:1. The tuning could also be described as ~8.549-TET (~8.549-EDO) or 140.368 cents per semitone. Interestingly, the √7:1 octave ratio provides a more perfect 5th than 12-TET offers. The "5th" is just 0.116 cents off from the 3:2 just interval perfect 5th of 701.955 cents. There are some other curious oddities with the Square Root of 7. "On the reverse of the current US one-dollar bill, the 'large inner box' has a length-to-width ratio of the square root of 7, and a diagonal of 6.0 inches." - McGrath, Ken (2002).
