Why does optical kerning in advanced typesetting systems sometimes produce aesthetically inferior results compared to manual adjustments for specific typeface pairings?

💡 Explanation

Optical kerning relies on algorithmic analysis; however, it doesn't replicate the human aesthetic judgment necessary for subtle adjustments to specific character pairs. This is because automatic systems lack contextual evaluation, therefore, manual adjustments often yield superior results, rather than the consistency from algorithms.
