Oh, wow, took a peek at just the first link so far, and it looks like I have my studying to do!!
It might take me a bit to check it all out (and grasp it) --- but I wonder if I'm really up for all that, when what I have works (as far as turning things "on"' goes) and all I wanted to do was turn them off for just one little instance, and I may never have the need again.
And in that regard, too, I'm reminded of what Jackie wrote earlier, too...

The one (and only) instance where I wanted to turn ligs off was for a long-"s" + "t" lig -- and that's one of the standard ligs found in almost any good font, along with fi, fl, ffl, etc. (as Jackie was referring to). So even with ligs turned off (or, rather, never turned on), that would likely render as the lig anyway.
I haven't tried it, but I also don't have every device to test it out on, either -- so perhaps I'm better off just doing it my kludgy way after all?
