Here's a bonkers idea I came up with some years ago, looking at the CSS font-size-adjust property and pondering how one might define such a property in a way that wasn't Latin-centric and could be applied to any script (the property is defined in terms of x-height size, so is really only relevant to European scripts and a few outliers)
I wonder if there is something less bonkers about this, in terms of making font-size-adjust work for all scripts?
