└────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Fontconfig uses an inverted priority scheme where files with lower-number
prefixes take precedence over files with higher-number prefixes (except for
localization override rules, which are processed in the other order).

It is almost always safe to use high numbers in the prefix range your font
belongs to, if you do not want to perturb distribution defaults.
