Click on a version. Apparently it works perfectly, but you need to winetricks
corefont

Eh. EM bands, regulations, supply chains, and marketing are complicated, is my read on it. Doubly so when you want to do everything sustainably and ethically, and then market that in a famously hyper-consumeristic country.
I wish they did sell it directly in North America. But I don’t blame them for focusing on the EU where they’re at home.
