Exactly. The version I installed works fine, all 4 variants are well bahaved. I probably copied what I had on some amazon device.
Perversely though, I have currently reverted back to kobo nickel for my kepubs on kobo forma, abandoning the notion of having same font on all my devices. The line spacings and font height are very different with that and it reads like something that was actually designed to look good on the kobo reader.
I am not a font technician so I can't explain exactly how/why it looks so different compared with bookerly or caecelia, but it does.
