Intentional, unfortunately. It's may not be standard in theory, but in
practice, some software only shows one particular flavor. IIRC OSX
warns strongly against installation with one flavor missing, and other
software (maybe Windows??) does likewise for the other.

An easy way to see the duplicate copyright notices is to run the .ttf
files through the ttx tools, then look for "namerecord". Platform IDs
/ Encoding IDs of 1/0 and 3/1 are as per
