Description

**Describe the bug**
When using Inter Variable, if I apply `font-style: italic;`, the font is double slanted compared to using Inter Regular Italic.

**To Reproduce**
```

```
I use the tailwindcss `italic` utility which add `font-style: italic;`.
The font appears double slanted.
If I add `font-synthesis: none;`, the font is slanted currectly (only once).

**Expected behavior**
The font should not be double slanted.
