How common is it in the humanities that an academic journal does not accept "unsolicited manuscripts" (aka article submissions: Don't contact us, we contact you.) and then has a house style that is so prohibitive that it demands to use a specific typeface that's not even included by default in MS Office? To cap it all, it's in a discipline that when it was set up in the 70s, it was intended to break down sociocultural barriers. Culture may be ordinary, but so is gatekeeping it seems.
