What's the weight of As and the weight of Bs ? I'm convinced by now that the correct answer is to try to match the weight as closely as possible to an ideal world where we had infinite font weights (i.e., D should be bold). Having different characters in, potentially, the same word display with different font weights in this case is flat-out pathological.
