I can’t agree - it’s beautifully designed, and I can’t complain about its kerning. It also responds to tlig or liga features, even if they’re implemented as single (i.e. not ligature) glyphs (there are e.g. different f glyphs). Maybe it’s set up in a strange way, but I don’t think it’s that bad. Of course I don’t have your level of insight. My problem with Alegreya’s *design* it just that it’s not very well suited for digital printing, it needs a high resolution to look good.
