--- Comment #1 from Stefan Knorr (astron) <heinzlesspam at gmail.com> ---
The light variant was deliberately excluded as LibreOffice (and its users)
would probably only be confused by it: LibreOffice is works best with two
weights of fonts (Regular & Bold) and two styles of fonts (Upright & Italic).
Everything else only ends in a mess: e.g. What happens when using the Bold
button on a light font? Which fonts are displayed in the font drop-down?

(And yes, I do have enough pro fonts on my computer to know that many
weights/many styles are a pain to work with in LibreOffice.)
