Description
The naming table of `Noto Sans Hanifi Rohingya` font file does not contain name records with nameID 13 (license description) and nameID 14 (license info URL).
Once the font is downloaded or embedded, the records in the naming table are the only way to verify the font's license, therefore it should be included. Most fonts on Google Fonts do this, but Noto Sans Hanifi Rohingya is an exception.
For more information on the naming table see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/name
