There are thousands upon thousands of fonts that are also “hard to read”. It’s not because they are poorly executed. They’re just not all meant to be used as body text for a book. The function is clearly display text (ie one-off headlines, big type for designs like you might see in a magazine) and this one works in that role perfectly. Almost any amount of “hard to read” is tolerable when there’s only one or two lines of text set in it and it also happens to look beautiful.
