Not an issue, just a thought: Neon letters `l`, `f` and `r` more Argon-like than Neon-like. #110

First of all, great work! Really like the fonts and their features.

Not an issue really, just a thought: Neon letters l, f and r are more Argon-like than Neon-like. Those are almost indistinguishable from their Argon counterparts, hampering Neon's uniqueness. Compared to other Neon letters, those look quite different (to my eyes). Perhaps those letters would look more Neon like if their shapes were more curvy like the Neon t? Calling Code is a great example that comes to mind.

Note that adjusting slant even on the same font causes these (f at least) to take very different shapes.
