Hello,
All the informations on font weight appear to be stripped out in Mac OS Big Sur ; as a result, a single weight takes precedence over the others.
As an example, if I install say Roboto Mono Light, I can see the font via M-x describe-font as :
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-normal-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
The ‘light’ weight information does not appear. As a consequence, if I now install Roboto Mono Regular, this is what I get:
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-normal-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
The two fonts having the same handler, one takes precedence over the other (and all the text now appears as a long fat headline).
Testing the same process under macOS Catalina (the previous OS) on another computer, this is what I get after installing Roboto Mono Light :
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-light-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-light-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-light-normal-normal-*-14-*-*-*-m-0-fontset-auto1
And after installing Roboto Mono Regular :
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-bold-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-light-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-light-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-light-normal-normal-*-14-*-*-*-m-0-fontset-auto1
-*-Roboto Mono-normal-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
-*-Roboto Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
The font weight information is here preserved and I can select different variants of the font. So it seems like the problem really pertains to MacOS Big Sur.
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Arnaud

Hi, sorry nobody's got back to you before now.
I don't have Big Sur installed so I can't test this.
Are you able to try Emacs 28 (the master branch) and see if the problem
exists there too?

Iʼm not sure. I installed those two fonts, and indeed when I select
'weight:light' in M-x customize-face it has no effect. But other than
that I donʼt see 'a long fat headline'.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)
The font weight selection code has been revamped since this bug report
was filed -- do you still see this problem in Emacs 29?

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
month, so I'm closing this bug report. If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
