Personally I feel things started going wrong with the Benton pantograph.
There’s no arguing with sales figures and not-great app support. I do know most fonts that are sold as single styles have variable and interpolating source material. The math certainly has its uses.
So. Does that mean we can take another look at non-orthogonal non-VF compatible designspaces or is that also too much?
