The PCLT table is strongly discouraged for OpenType™ fonts with TrueType outlines.
is underspecified and can be interpreted in multiple ways. Is it encouraged for font files with CFF outlines? But I can only find it in font files with TrueType outlines, so perhaps it should be interpreted the other way: i.e. that it's prohibited in CFF outlines and also discouraged in TT outline fonts? Should it just be blanket discouraged everywhere?
(What we mean by "discouraged" is also worth thinking about, but perhaps a separate issue.)
