Description

- Hyper.app version: 2

- Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere):
- The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:
Issue
The issue doesn't happen on v1.x
Normal font weight (possible on hyper 1.4.6):

"Normal" font weight on 2.0

I have tried fontWeight: 'normal', fontWeightBold: 'normal', and fontWeight: '100', but none worked so far

Research direction
Reproduce the font-weight behavior in Hyper.app 2.0 using the linked .hyper.js configuration, then compare it with Hyper 1.4.6 where the setting worked. Trace how the fontWeight and fontWeightBold options are applied to the terminal UI; done means a lighter normal font can be selected without affecting unrelated font settings.
