    Eh I don’t really buy the noticeable argument. Either it’s not noticeable both ways (doesn’t matter that m is squished all the time) or it’s not noticeable both ways (expanding m doesn’t align and it’s noticeable and annoying).

    Optical Illusion

    Wait no, its the fault of the stretching! I mean yes, the i’s are the same hight (which is shocking, thank you for correcting us on that) but the reason it’s an optical illusion is because the i on the left is wider and wide m exaggerates the thinness of the i on the right! Turn off the stretching and suddenly the i’s look the same height.

    Edit: I see someone else already pointed this out

    This is what I meant by “feeling like my editor is gaslighting me”
