Really commendable work fixing up the upstream python project. I don't think there's anything to be embarrassed about in the timeline.

Hey OP, can you share how you came across this company? It is incredibly new, the domain has only been registered for a few weeks, and their are barely any google results for it.

Google thinks it's OFL v1.1
https://github.com/googlefonts/atkinson-hyperlegible?tab=rea...
But it also has a Reserved Font Name, so probably OFL-1.1-RFN going by the SPDX License List
https://spdx.org/licenses/
Kinda too bad they don't just state which license they're aiming for.
