@kentlew @JTDType Not bad! I guess it similarly suffers from some of the terms having implications beyond size alone. I also have to constantly remind myself that many graphic designers have no idea what some terms like “Banner” even refer to. I’ve had multiple people admit to me that they thought a typeface was meant for digital screens because it had “Display” in the name.

@nicksherman @JTDType Yeah, I realize that “Banner” has more limited familiarity beyond the old Font Bureau world. Never occurred to me that newer folk might have a completely different response to “Display” though. Probably all name-based sequences are going to have weaknesses due to different perspectives/interpretations. 🤷♂️
