can do with 12/12 that you CANNOT do using standard meters, or combinations
thereof ?

Turning again to Ferneyhough:
A passage of four bars, with the following time signatures:
7/8 7/20 3/12 5/16
The 3/12 bar could be notated as triplets in 2/8 - although this removes
(or at least obscures) the three-beat structure of that bar. However,
there's no way of rewriting the 7/20 bar using tuplets. It could be
done in 7/16, with a tempo change in the ratio 4:5. Except that there's
a rallentando marked over these four bars, making such a tempo marking
impossible.
