When I added your “Lost in fonts” article to the CGJ, I did exactly that with the included TYFA* fonts.
They were not recognized in the same folder as the article or in texmf-fonts/fonts/data/tyfa, even after several force reloads; they were only found when I added them to the system font directory (~/Library/Fonts on MacOS).
