Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Free with Windows
Pro Compact while light
Packs lots of information into your screen space while remaining clear and never looking crowded.
Pro Renders perfectly at all sizes
Again, particularly in Windows
Pro Looks absolutely gorgeous in Windows
Looks good elsewhere as well, but the world-class hinting here really comes out with the windows rasterizer (probably optimized for it).
Pro Italic variant with handwriting style
Pro Has ligatures
Pro Cheaper alternative to Operator Mono
Operator Mono costs about $200. Dank Mono looks similar but costs only £40.
Cons
Con Not monospaced
-if that is an absolute must for you. But don't assume it is until you've tried without...
Con Too thin
He needs to add variants of thickness and then I think he would have a sellar product. You have to set your font size extremely high on hi-res displays to look the way I think he wishes it to be, but then the font is too large.
Con Looks a bit inconsistent, especially italics
Lowercase k looks weird.
