I am finishing the final touches on a manuscript, which I hope to send to a 
publisher later today and noticed this problem where bold and italic text isn't 
rendered at the same time.
I am using the EB Garamond font in my document. I set it up exactly as shown 
below. Strangely, bold works, italics works, but when bold and italics are 
together, it only display in italics, it doesn't display a bold italic text. 
I've confirmed the `EBGaramond-BoldItalic.otf` font is present and seems just 
fine. I've also tried by just using the default ConTeXt font and the error 
still appears, also in live.contextgarden.net. I tried searching the mailing 
list, as this seems like something that must have come up, but couldn't find 
any question about this.
Why won't it render both?
