problem is handwriting doesnt look like a font, its irregular w/variations in how letters are written depending on where they come in a word which letter they abut and randomness, so when you have a uniform system trying to imitate that it just ends up looking cloying and fake

handwriting fonts just rely on endless amounts of ligatures but its like isn't that a lot of work why not just write things

Comic Sans is partially responsible for creation of Jerkcity, this fact makes up for every sin that has been committed using this font

Zapfino is an illegible tech demo.

Opentype allows for software to automatically switch ligatures depending on context or random choice.
