I’m really excited that FontTools can now set the default of a variable font axis without needing a whole separate source for this, so I wrote a quick script to test it out.

It’s simple, and works really well!

@Mark2Mark_one @ArrowType You're very welcome. :)

Now I've got to warn, moving the default typically blows up the font size unfortunately, because of how OT variations are stored...

Here's the core of the logic, with ASCII art:
