It’s not about me lol, this is a fundamental criterion for a good font, a font that doesn’t differentiate between glyphs is objectively a bad font, it is bad at the ONE SINGLE JOB it has.

Ironically i find it vastly more difficult to focus on than normal fonts, all i want is to FUCKING MAKE GLYPHS LOOK DIFFERENT TO EACH OTHER
