Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts-4] Should the OpenType spec dictate the acceptable values for variable font CSS properties?

> Scenario we may consider is when number following italic means not "half italic", but slant angle. This will work for fonts that include both 'ital' and 'slnt' axis. For example, Redcoat font has right-leaning and left-leaning variants of italic. 'ital' axis will still receive discrete value of 0 or 1.

Looking at the Redcoat font family mentioned, I would suggest that it shows left- and right-leaning variants of *oblique*, not of italic. If it were implemented as a variation font, it should use the 'slnt' axis.
