What convinced some typesetters that it’s okay to add a paragraph on the font they chose for a book on the last page? Why not also have the bookbinder write something on which paper they chose and whoever set the book’s price write something about their economic considerations?

Before I started writing this post, I thought I was indifferent about fonts. Having thought about this a bit more, I now know that I’m slightly hostile towards them. Not so much towards the fonts themselves, but more towards the idea that they matter.
