Postcript/Style name in the variable font is "Bricolage Grotesque 96pt ExtraBold"

Learned about this beautiful font and wanted to use the variable font with my CV which I typeset using ConTeXt.

For that I set up a typescript (which is the way used by ConTeXt to use a typeface family) following the example given here but had a couple issues:

  1. The ttf fonts were not listed at all by ConTeXt font indexing mechanism - so I had to move the folder with the OTF fonts out of ConTeXt reach, and then it recognized them; and
  2. It couldn't look up for the variable font because it's listed as "Bricolage Grotesque 96pt ExtraBold" ("bricolagegrotesque96ptextrabold"), which conflicts with the static font of that style.

I could verify this using fontdrop.info, which although it recognizes it indeed it's a variable font it shows its name as "Bricolage Grotesque 96pt ExtraBold".


It would be nice to have an OTF version of the variable font, though
