> "Better" is your personal opinion. Anyway, I think some of others' "personal opinion" (different from yours) is simply based on familiarity - some people are just more familiar with MS/Apple rendering, and therefore prefer it. In the end of the day, FreeType is not MS/Apple font scaler. Fact.

Not necessarily! This might be different in the opposite direction.
The "fact" that v38 is closer to Microsoft has to be shown. Also,
replication of Microsoft was *never* stated as an Infinalit goal.
BTW https://github.com/pdeljanov/infinality-remix
... still no mention of Microsoft as gold standard.

I am just saying what I know: Infinality was never *closer* to
Microsoft than v40.
