Matlab Custom Font
I've noticed is that the highly rated fonts for coding (e.g. Fira Code, Inconsolata, etc.) seem to overlook one issue that is key for coding in Matlab. While these fonts make 0 and O, as well as the 1 and l easily distinguishable, the brackets are not. Quite often the curly bracket looks similar to the curved bracket, which can lead to mistakes when coding or reviewing code.
So I was thinking: Could Mathworks put together a team to review good programming fonts, and come up with their own custom font designed specifically and optimized for Matlab syntax?

Time DescendingMy experience is that Consolas (Windows and Linux) and Monaco (Mac) are pretty good for Matlab. Braces, brackets, and parenthesis do look very similar in a lot of fonts.
