This doesn’t seem strange to me at all. I’m a fan of many books and I don’t know the name of any of the typefaces. I think it’s funny that this author links fandom for fonts to fandom for Dune and thinks people interested in Dune are also interested in typefaces.
I like this article and was curious about the distinctive “dune font.” But not enough to Google it in the past 40 years.
