I've always hated how when I increase boldness, the text shifts, making me lose focus for a second. So I upped the em size of the font (from 1000 to a proper 2048) and removed its hints using fontforge and it seems to have worked. With every boldness increase, the words remain static.

I used the old Bookerly v1.020, the version before Amazon ruined it. And I renamed it to DaltonMaag, the typographer.
