Right, right. I get that. My point is I'm pretty sure the glyphs are the same. But as a for instance, if you use Literata and Literata Book, they are the same font, but Book has tighter line spacing using the same settings.

I was just curious if someone who knows more than me could point out what (if any) differences there are in different versions of Bookerly as they are all named the same thing.

Anyway, I didn't mean to knock the conversation so far off track.
Yes, that is what I see too. Literata and Literata Book have the same glyphs, but the Book version is much tighter in terms of in-word spacing, and line spacing. This amounts to about 20% more text per page, and that is too tight to my taste. There is the 3rd version of Literata to which Google refers to as Literata 3. It is a bit tighter than the original one, just about 1% more text per page, and that one looks best to me out of the 3.
