Reminds me about what they used to say about Al Gore on Fox "News". They said he takes private jets. It's a bad faith argument because those people then go on to deny climate change. Also he's a former vice president, I'm sure security reasons are part of that decision. Also if those private jets allow him to be more productive in fighting climate change the net benefit of him using it may exceed the additional carbon generated by the jets.
The first name "Al" has been ruined, my first thought was "they're making AI gore?".
I wish fonts made the difference between uppercase i and lowercase L as clear as possible. I don't understand why most computer fonts don't put lines above and below the uppercase i like I think everyone is taught in school to do.
If adding serifs to the I is bad, I think a good alternative is adding a tail to the l (like a t without the bar). Some fonts do this and I'm a huge fan.
