There is deeper maths behind 12-tone octave than is implied by "western music".
It also encapsulates nearly all other scale systems found in the world.
The fact that 4/3, 5/4 and 6/5 are approximately 2^(1/12) apart, and 3/2 is twice as far as that from 4/3, pretty much made every other musical theory system irrelevant.
