Agree that the scaling of ssty forms of infinity has gone a bit wrong. infinity.ssty1:

And similarly for infinity.ssty2:

I think it is the other ssty glyphs that are too bold, #58.

Thank you for all the improvements to the font @khaledhosny !

We finally have an actual alternative to Fira Math in settings where a sans serif font is appropriate. 😊

(The only thing I've noticed missing so far is matching chancery, roundhand and fraktur, but I can work around that for the time being by changing notation.)
