Well, the font has maintenance problems. The original from Georg Duffner at https://github.com/georgd/EB-Garamond is basically frozen since more than 10 years, and the list of issues is quite large. An improved version from Octavio Pardo at https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12 also had a hiatus of five years with no fixes applied (and almost 40 issues open), and only recently I see some (non-font) commits again. Another derived font, however, has a lot of activity: https://codeberg.org/m-casanova/Garamontio The only 'problem' is that ChangeLog entries are in Italian :-) I thus suggest that you give Garamontio a try.
