Can we still use YOPQ as the name for our contrast axis, given that our axis changes advance widths, and the max varies by weight?

We ARE sticking with YOPQ,
BUT we need to change the “display name” of the axis anyway, from “Y Opaque” to “Thin Stroke” per https://github.com/googlefonts/axisregistry/blob/main/Lib/axisregistry/data/y_opaque.textproto

UPDATE AGAIN!

Nope. We need a brand new axis. But what will it be called, and what scale etcetera?
Probably ought to be discussed here: googlefonts/axisregistry#3
