Description
The Noto Sans TC (Chinese Traditional) font uses glyphs that are not suitable for the Hong Kong locale, despite having coverage to a large subset. The font design neither follows commercially acceptable glyph standards in Hong Kong nor follows the Hong Kong government's "Guidelines on Character Glyphs for Chinese Computer Systems".
FYI, the glyphs for HB0, HB1 and HB2 currently in the Unicode Standard are NOT supplied by Hong Kong but instead are substituted as placeholders.
Please rename the font Noto Sans TC (Chinese Traditional) to Noto Sans TW (Chinese Traditional).
The same issue has been raised over in the Source Han Sans repository (https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-han-sans/issues/18) and the font has been renamed to TW since 1.001.
Please adjust the Noto font accordingly.
