Errors include: Self Intersecting; Missing Points at Extrema

I'm using v1.020 of Bookerly and attempting the naming convention from posts long ago and mentioned again in this thread:

Bookerly-Regular -> Bookerly-a.ttf
Bookerly-Italic -> Bookerly-b.ttf
Bookerly-Bold -> Bookerly-c.ttf
Bookerly-BoldItalic -> Bookerly-d.ttf

Any help would be greatly appreciated before I go bald from pulling my hair out!
Here is a solution that works. Plus, it's more readable and easier to remember.

Bookerly-Regular
Bookerly-Italic
Bookerly-Bold
Bookerly-BoldItalic
