BPOZZ Design Note
No other family in the BPOZZ library covers Sinhala, so a partner face would leave Sinhala text with nothing to switch to; the five weights carry the hierarchy instead, lighter for body text and heavier for headlines. The compact Da forms sit behind a stylistic set, so they appear only once a font-feature-settings rule asks for them.
