      is this deliberate or an accident?




Either way, it's unacceptable. I'd call it either a major blunder or a major bug. :/

What's worse is that the differences are not consistent across all the weights and styles, and they are most noticeable in the Regular weight.

Dutch is one of the languages I work with, and I agree that this font is simply unusable for setting Dutch text. The diphthong ij is indeed extremely common.
