It's incredible that one of the biggest companies in the world can't manage to appropriately license their stuff.

Apache 2.0 is also a strange license for anything that's not code, too; it refers to "source" and "object" form throughout. I imagine they could've chosen it for license simplicity & compatibility reasons, but again, if they just wanted these to be used as widely as possible, they could've just gone CC0.

Fonts are code. And very often have a clear source vs. object form.
