alt Hacker Newsseems like a good step towards making a variable font that allows all forms of text b/c Apple already has SF (fka San Francisco) which has many variants.

yep. specially since Apple font license is quite restrictive:
> Apple restricts the usage of the typeface by others. It is licensed to registered third-party developers only for the design and development of applications for Apple's platforms. Only SF Pro, SF Compact, SF Mono, SF Arabic, SF Hebrew and New York variants are available for download on Developer website and they are the only SF variants allowed to be used by developers.

If you like variable fonts, no font is better at giving fine tune control than Roboto Flex (also by Google).
Has 12-axis of variables (whereas most only have 1 or 2)
