Question bookerly font - space after speech mark for C, K

I came across an apparent bug - confirmed by googling and extra testing - which is that the bookerly font ( and only the bookerly font) will add a space between an opening speech mark and a capital C or K ( but only those two capitalised letters)

i.e."C renders as " C , when there is no extra space in the book source code.

what I did not find was any acknowledgement from Amazon either that this will be fixed, someday, or that they don't care & will not be fixing it.

I turned off that font choice, meanwhile, as it bugs me to keep seeing that artifact.

There is one quite old post on this board, which I did not add to, mindful of the necroposting advice; and a thread somewhere in reddit - does anyone have any up to date info in this please.

I see this on my Kindle Voyage, but it may be a font specific, rather than a device specific issue
