Line height on Mplus Code Latin is too large #23

The current line height on Mplus Code Latin 50 and Mplus Code Latin 60 is too large for a coding font that doesn't include any large characters like the rest of the family.

I've been experimenting with font-line to test different values for UPM percentage and got a much more compact yet readable output with the value of 1.16 (same as reported by font-line for Cascadia Code).

Here's the comparison of 3 fonts (font-size adjusted to have identical horizontal metrics) with UPM values reported by font-line:

Thank you for your wonderful suggestions. We're just about to publish it on Google Fonts, but it turns out that it's still in time, so we'll adopt your point.
