I'm glad you bumped it. Otherwise I would have missed this:
"you sound like a novice cook trying to argue with a master BBQ chef that Boston Pork Butt is really actually meat from the hiney and not the shoulder because it clearly says "butt." The chef keeps trying to tell you it is from the shoulder but, oh well."
Priceless.
As for the idea that any particular tuning is more natural/spiritual/magical than the next, I feel compelled to point out that any tuning based on measuring frequencies in Hz (i.e. cycles per second) is
highly unlikely to have any special "harmony" with "the universe" given that the duration of a second is a totally arbitrary, man-made value. There's nothing "natural" about it. No harmonic phenomenon in nature fits nicely into our arbitrarily defined frequency scale except insofar as the second has been arbitrarily defined (since 1967) to be:
"the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two
hyperfine levels of the
ground state of the
caesium 133 atom."
