What do you mean by "better" - what is favored in some musical contexts,
might be disfavored in others.

Have you tried plugging it into Scala:

which can do scale changes in an automated way against a suitable MIDI
synth?

And then try to play especially chords in various scales: their texture
changes radically with the scale.
And then, you only have to choose the particular scale that fits your
musical context.
