Which is a bug.

Legacy, in the sense that this is how it was implemented before? That's not
much of an argument.

As for compatibility - the 2x2 dichotomy would simply be translated into a more
expressive font selection information. That's part of the required work.

It's a bug, even if done intentionally. Done intentionally" just means someone
made the wrong call. It is unreasonable for an office suite to just decide it
won't properly support things like a style for making one's font oblique, or
increasing the weight to a certain fraction of the maximum etc., because of an
ugly "jerry-rigging" of variants into a separate font family.
