Research direction

Start with the attached wdthTest.glyphs.zip and reproduce the conversion from the Glyphs source to UFO and designspace. Compare the source wdth axis range with the generated designspace mappings, including the 62.5 minimum and map entries, then determine whether the behavior is intentional or should be changed.
