Lower "L"s and upper "i"s are basically identical in Calibri. It’s a sans serif font that’s hard to read for everyone. Calibri is an shit font and never should have been used on any government documents.
I could also go on about what I think is harder or easier to read, but that’s neither here nor there. The post claims there is/are a font or fonts that were specifically created with the intention to be harder to read for the disabled, and I want to know whether that’s true.
Sans serif is fine for signs, headlines, single-word content. Not so fine for text blocks, paged text, columns because it does not provide the horizontal guide that serifs provide.

I was meaning that the switch to a serif font from a sans serif font was meant with apathy or antipathy for dyslexics’ legibility
That’s true but not at all what you said in the post. But thanks for clarifying here!
