Cyrillic letters "ц" and "щ" have the same small part on the right bottom corner. "щ" is OK now. The problem is with "ц": the bolder is the weight, the worse is the problem.

It's connected to the issue #225 - probably is has better description. The issue is closed now, but the problem is still present.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the bold weight glyph data for Cyrillic letter 'ц' in the font source files (likely .ufo or .glyphspackage) and modify the bottom right corner shape to fix the rendering issue.
