But whether it's simulated or not wont matter to the Benjamin users [1] who
don't care about the advanced options. I'm afraid of confusions between
OpenType "font effects" and "simulated" font effects. Your proposed renaming
might be a solution if we go with separation, meaning two tabs. If we integrate
the features it doesn't matter as non-OpenType fonts would have the same
options but simulated (or disabled if not possible). However, I understand the
additional effort and could follow the argument that mixed features leads to
confusion in the other way for experts.
