OK - Thanks. Yeah - I do the same with .svg whenever possible. I've only seen the font files available as .ttf on GitHub - never seen anyone post it as .otf
I had to create some new specialized icons for the web dev team here, and the web exports looked fine, so I'm guessing I will just have to create a fork on Github and clean them up as a long term project. Not hard - just tedious.
SVG graphics can be designed with either cubic (PS style) or quadratic (TT style) curves. Opening one of the source SVG files, in this case, it see code for cubic curves.
Although the circles are lovely in the quadratic version shown by @Jim Parrillo above (using the minimum 8 points vs the 12 in the cubics), I see how the inner curve of the question mark is ... janky. Looks kind of like something got rounded to grid during conversion, perhaps with not enough resolution.
I think the jankyness comes from a cubic to quadratic conversion that is not checking for the inflection point. Because that is quite difficult, it is easier to always add an explicit point at the inflection.
