This synopsis and description looks a little unclear to me.
How about:

  (synopsis "Customised build of the Iosevka typeface")
  
  (description "Aporetic fonts are a custom build of Iosevka with
  different style and metrics than the default.  Aporetic optimises for
  inter-glyph and inter-style consistency within the overarching
  constraint of usability at small point sizes.")

Also, you should make 'font-iosevka-comfy' a deprecated package of this
one.

Could you send an updated patch?  Thanks.
