Inter Dynamic Metrics is interesting: more spacing for small text, tighter tracking for larger text
Similar to how macOS/iOS does dynamic optical sizes for San Francisco fonts, but continuous

Why can't macOS record system audio out of the box in 2023? I'm using a custom Git build of the BlackHole driver from over a year ago, plus a multi-output device

Fix incoming.
