I love the concept of uniwidth typefaces, but the problem stands that almost every single uniwidth font looks fundamentally _differently_ when you bold them or not.
The aspect of bolding in normal fonts makes them easier to see, and increases the spacing to accommodate, but nearly every uniwidth bold font fundamentally changes the font to shift them to a new font that is marginally based on the non-bold.
I'm not saying I entirely dislike them, or that there aren't good uniwidth fonts out there, but it's just that in almost all cases the difference in the same font set is fundamentally different.
