After erasing the font cache and regenerating LM was doing it right
again.
Helvetica did not, but maybe I made a mistake in
\definefontfamily
[helvetica]
[ss]
[Helvetica]
[tf=style:Regular,
bf=style:Bold,
it=style:Oblique,
bi=style:Bold Oblique]
Does it work when you remove the manual assignments to tf, it, etc. or
when you use lowercase names (without spaces), e.g. "bi=boldoblique" (or
"bi=bolditalic").
No and no. With th elatter it doesn't load Helvetica at all, Error shown:
selectfont > the requested font 'Helvetica' has no files for the 'tf' alternative, Latin Modern is used instead.
mkiv lua stats > loaded fonts: 4 files: latinmodern-math.otf, lmroman10-italic.otf, lmroman10-regular.otf, lmsans10-regular.otf
With my original it does load (but no italic):
mkiv lua stats > loaded fonts: 4 files: helvetica.ttc, latinmodern-math.otf, lmroman10-italic.otf, lmroman10-regular.otf
Erase cache, regenerate formats, reload fonts (force) does give another (probably unrelated) error:
