Models by which all others are periodically measured

Constructor's Note
The answer to the meta is a number
This is a correction to my puzzles: https://crosshare.org/crosswords/vHWQ59aV3gTNGvnKZdK8/models-by-which-all-others-are-periodically-measured which is a meta puzzle that had a fatal flaw. (Still doable and fun, but notably has a fatal error).
