Seem the Kindle font handling system prefers fonts with hints which is why Bookerly is buggered because hinting was removed.

Anyway, if anyone uses ChareInk with a Kindle, I'll be posting hinted versions after I add hinting to the weighted version.
After tinkering a lot with fonts, I found fonts with hints look better in KFX and fonts stripped of hints look better in KF8.
