This isn't really a bug or a limitation, as far as Microsoft are
concerned, but exactly how Windows was designed to work. Grouping
fonts from the same family by weight and presenting only one name is
the design. Where it breaks down is where the family has more than two
weights. In this case fonts designed for Windows have to lie and
pretend to belong to different families.
