See like 130 in this: https://github.com/googlefonts/fontbakery/blob/fe31deb46b622a80870b9b6cb1f548323d878328/Lib/fontbakery/profiles/universal.py … I think it would be worth reconsidering your approach as hhea is often being changed to follow the OS/2 metrics values to enable crossplatform alignment.
Sorry, if you wouldn’t mind bearing with me: could you explain this issue to me in more detail, perhaps using a specific font as an example?

(This issue being how would that lead to more inconsistent baseline alignment.)

Well, take a look at the figma you produced. Founders Grotesk has a large gap below the letters. Vipps a large above the letters. This is entirely to Founders using more typographic metrics (aka, has lineGap), and Vipps using winAscent / winDescent style metrics (lineGap = 0).

Oh, I see what you mean. Thanks for explaining. For us, however, compatibility with web rendering has more of a gravity than anything else, since this is the most common destination of designs made in Figma. Might change in the future, though.
