Looking at these further, the 7x3 rectangle strikes me as particularly
interesting, since it is epimorpic with the 21-et standard val, and is
a miracle modmos. Possibly similar results could be had for canasta
and studloco using corner clipping.
The modmos in question is, in the mode of the scale given below, the
following:
[-22, -19, -17, -16, -14, -13, -12, -11, -10, -9, -8, -7, -6, -5,
-4, -3, -2, 0, 1, 3, 6]
Here are some Scala scl formatted scales:

Subject: Rectangular breed scales
Another interesting way to construct scales for breed tempering is to
take rectangles of the generators. I checked scales of the form [a,b],
for 1 <= a,b <= 6, where by this I mean that I took (49/40)^i(10/7)^j,
with 0 <= i <= a and 0 <= j <= b, and reduced these by octaves and
2401/2400. Below I list what we get in those cases where the resulting
scale is epimorphic, listing [a,b], the scale, and the epimorph val
for the scale. Note the 3x3 square, the [2,2] scale, is epimorphic.
