BPOZZ Design Note

Gravitas One's lowercase ranks in the widest one percent of the library by average advance, so each word takes up far more of the line than its point size suggests. Test the longest title at the narrowest breakpoint before fixing a headline length, since even a short phrase can break onto a second line.
