It's true, those are different fonts, one being a revised version of the other. But at screen text sizes and similar weights they are quite close, and when aiming to take advantage of consistency across platforms without the use of web fonts I think it's reasonable that they are grouped.

Don't be a type snob. ;)

        I actually would prefer to keep the number of participants in this conversation small so that we can retain focus. I'm fairly certain that Siebrand has enough vim and vigor about the subject for everyone.
