The way they talk about it makes it sound like they invented the written word, but that notwithstanding the fonts actually look really nice in my opinion.

Too bad I'm married to JetBrains Mono.

Does anyone know if Jetbrains Mono also does the whole dynamic width thing?

Could elaborate on what the "dynamic width thing" means?

Like how Neo flexes in the hallway and the entire Matrix flexes around him, except with wide letters like 'm'.

Letters like m and I are still same pixel width, you just use function of openfonts to shift letters and replace with wider version where possible.
