By extending the design to use counters, couldn't you extend it further to support other scales (still 12 notes per octave, obviously)? You could regain the freedom that was lost in the transition from 12 individually tunable oscillators to the TOS.
The irredeemably sick and perverse side of me would love to see someone playing the Wendy Carlos Harmonic and Super Just scales (which consist of 12x12 note scales, set by MIDI foot pedals, so that they can take advantage of just intonation while being both transposable and playable) on a Crumar Compac piano or similar piece of divide down detritus.
