> The typeface is licensed exclusively to registered third-party developers for the “design and development of applications for the Apple Watch”. [1] Cool. Another font for web designers to wrongfully assume I have installed on my system.

A designer who makes this kind of assumption and sticks with it is pretty poor and I doubt they would be making much of substance anyway.

That practice died out years ago with the rise of browser support for @font-face and the hosted webfont industry. Of course, you'll still encounter legacy sites that assume installed fonts, but no professional designer is going to specify type that way on a new project.

  Ah you mean yet more stuff to download and slowdown page loading

    Unless it's cached. And yes, more stuff to download to make your experience nicer to have design and heterogeneity in our lives.

      Depends is it worth the extra page weight and slower speed to cater for the designers typographical choices in 99.99% of cases no its not.

  I see countless sites that use `Helvetica`.
