i feel like this is a good argument if you could show some evidence that another font designer put any thought beyond mere aesthetics in thaer decision making.

i feel like this is a good argument if you could show some evidence that another font designer put any thought beyond mere aesthetics in thaer decision making.
What i would like to see from someone like you, that criticises the work on display, in this instance, would be:
-what font do you currently use?
-what evidence do you have that it was 'designed by a font designer'?
-what evidence do you have that such and such designer made decisions that are more accurate than the ones made here and for what reasons?
-is there a write up by said designer that describes those decisions and possible alternatives and reasons for doing one while avoiding another? .. this is my issue with the post, i feel it is too sparse on self addressed argument ..
