+1 for HORIZONTAL BAR and THREE-EM DASH, which I use constantly.

U+2015 wraps lines correctly in Spanish, unlike U+2014 which behaves in a manner more appropriate for the way it’s used in English.

And U+2E3B is very useful for bibliographies, to indicate that an author is repeated on the list.

That's not true for the Condensed variant. It seems that some (all?) the recently characters weren't added to the Condensed. A workaround is to use the variable one.

Strange. And thanks for spotting. Those updated Plex Sans Condensed fonts have been produced already but somehow never made it to this repositry. Just reported it as an issue
