What is the algo for sorting these styles that Figma uses? In the font list they are returned with just names, and different fonts can get creative with naming their styles.

How to sort font styles
Best answer by tank666
fontWeight can be found at TextNode. That is, to get fontWeight, you need to load the font and create a TextNode.
If the weight is the same, sort alphabetically.
The fonts are sorted by font-weight.
The problem is that Figma fonts can have all kinds of styles that I don’t even know what their weight could be. What is 75 Bold? Is it bolder than Bold? Etc. Is there some kind of weight reference for this?

fontWeight can be found at TextNode. That is, to get fontWeight, you need to load the font and create a TextNode.
If the weight is the same, sort alphabetically.
