Branding is very important.

Branding requires being distinctive, mixing novel visual and other aspects in a pleasing way.

As far as I have been able to tell no major platform ships with the universal font of fonts (full coverage of all possible fonts with 4.5Mb seed) “AnyStyleYouWant” font.

And none of the fonts they do ship have the “distinctive” feature.

Until that day comes…

Please keep your "branding" out of my UI. What I want from text in the apps I use is legibility first and foremost, not them screaming the brand at me every second I'm staring at them.
