SDF is great and all but ClearType is a necessity if we want text as ubiquitous and cheap as 2D computing. If SDF is the way to go, Microsoft should standardize it themselves so we don't need to pack texture sheets of every language of Ariel into every app.

If anyone else is wondering what SDF is, a bit of googling found me this blog post: https://aras-p.info/blog/2017/02/15/Font-Rendering-is-Gettin...

It gives a pretty good summary and a lot of other vocab words you can google, and touches on the Pathfinder project
