If you have an argument, the shape should enclose it symmetrically
(more or less) – it is up to you how sophisticated the algorithm is to
do that in the visually most pleasing way (i.
Typically fonts use x-height as a general design parameter. I don't know if
you find that helpful in this interesting project, but it is a point of
possible useage.

After all, you have the font-size proportion, using which you can control size
by \fontsize ...
You’d simply need to replace size by (magstep font-size). Alternatively if you
want to match text you could i
