Its also interesting the history of musical notes, who decided which frequency is which note. Its amazing to think a few hundred years ago people didn't all use the same A->G notes. Also other cultures never adopted the modern temperament. https://www.kylegann.com/histune.html https://www.kylegann.com/histune.html

There is a reason most modern music uses it. It's very good.

The author had a pretty severe lack of understanding of other cultures it’d seem. Carnatic South Indian music is one of many cultures which had an “A->G” equivalent.
