Sure, i know Thomas doesnt mention webink in his criticism. I have read his 
article :)
But looking back at the webink situation is a good way of providing an 
alternative lense through which to look at the Libre fonts that Thomas has 
criticised on his blog. It's often enlightening to compare 'similar' products, 
and ask why does one have any edge on another. Seems like a rather obvious link 
to make to me. I think if you open up a debate or offer public criticism on an 
issue you should expect to be openly debated and counter criticised on that 
same issue. I'm just returning the favour, and offering some positive criticism 
on WebINK, which i think clearly needs a shot in the arm, when compared to it's 
competitors.

Yes exactly. And the less popular and non-familiar faces look like they will 
forever stay less popular and non-familiar ;)
