Actually, you should apply for a special discount :P
As soon as you have bought the fonts and started complaining about
semi-broken functionality of Lucida while I was sitting behind Hans in
Brejlov two years ago, this triggered the project of creating OpenType
Lucida (and probably forced us to fix major problems in Type1 for
MKII/MKIV). So it's partially your fault that OpenType Lucida exists
in the first place. Blame yourself for the extra choice&price you are
offered now ;)
But Hans already told you back then: "don't use Lucida", didn't he?
