Description
I believe YTLC does **not** control the x-height of the typeface, holistically - it only adjusts the heights of counters within lowercase glyphs. For example, https://www.axis-praxis.org/specimens/dunbar changes XTLC + XTRA of lowercase glyphs in concert.
Is that the right way to change the x height expressively, or it is better to adjust other settings in concert, such as the font-size, parametric counter width (XTRA), ascender height (YTAS), descender depth (YTDS), and parametric cap height (YTUC), along with parametric x-height (YTLC)?
