BH <-846 cents is exactly midway between a just
minor and a just major third.>

Hmmm, so the bell is 'exactly' out of tune!
It consequently makes a horrible dissonance with the 10th.

Looking at it objectively, one of the principle harmonics in the whole ring is
deliberately a quarter tone out?
Not very clever.
