Actually, 41 has a better 4th and 5th, only being off by about half a cent, as opposed to being off by about 2 cents. It also has thirds and sixths that are quite a bit better (though still not great), and it has very good 7-limit intervals, which is something 12-EDO has nothing even remotely close to.
31 is generally decent all around, but it has worse 4ths and 5ths than 12-EDO.
53 EDO is even better than 41, having 4ths and 5ths that are off by about 7 hundredths of a cent. It also has much better 3rds and 6ths than 41, but the 7-limit intervals are slightly worse.
