The reason there are so few free optical-size typefaces is that they take a lot of work to get right. Indeed, really high-quality, fine- tuned free typefaces are hard to find even at single size.
I don’t know about its quality, but Adobe makes the Source Serif font available under the SIL Open Font License, with 5 optical sizes and 6 weights. I’m working on a typescript file that allows to use all those variants, would be happy to contribute it if that’s useful. https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-serif Vincent
