Music theorists would have you believe that there is no best possible scale: Different scales have different uses, and are appropriate for different musical goals, so picking an objective "best" is not only pointless, it's actively counterproductive. And that's true... but what if it wasn't? What if we *could* work out the best scale, through the careful, scientifically grounded process of running a bunch of my favorites through a single-elimination bracket? Would that be a good idea? I mean, probably, right? 'Cause that's what I did.
