Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Review Request for OpenType Variable Fonts Additions to CSS Fonts Module Level 4 (#183)

Now that 
a) font-weight is an actual continuously-variable number in the 1 to 999 range (per OpenType spec, although unlike CSS3 Fonts and earlier, where it was an enumeration of number-like strings: "100" "200" etc
b) Variable fonts are intended to cover a range of variations and be instantiated on-the-fly, on-demand (rather than choosing from one of a fixed set of instantiations)
then animating fonts is much more of a reasonable use case than previously. Discussing this with people close to the font industry (particularly Erik van Blokland, but also Roel Nieskens and others) animation with variable fonts is a strong request.
