They're using the words "Monotype Fonts" as a type shop, a brand, a company...I forget which but I set type decades ago and remember the name. They're not referring to 'monotype fonts' as a type of font, like serif or sans serif.

Even worse, when reading this sentence in the comments, I thought it was referring to monospace coding fonts, which happen to share the same "legibility features" as required by DIN 1450 (tailed l, dotted 0, etc.)

Perhaps because nouns are usually capitalized in German.

Seriously tho, does it really matter that much? There are native English speakers who write worse than that.

It matters that if you are writing illegibly even the ultra legible typeface is not going to help that much

I feel the issue applies in this case also, unless all of Monotype Fonts' fonts are DIN 1450 fonts.
