No; this describes a fuller picture of the issues with font-style and variable fonts. 

I found that issue before filing this, and it is perhaps one part of this bug. However, I am confused by the comment there that “we erroneously apply synthetic bold.” I don’t see synthetic bold being applied in my test cases, only synthetic italics.  Did you intend to say “we erroneously apply synthetic italic”? If so, then that issue definitely falls under this issue's umbrella. However, this issue also describes the cases of how font-style should act for fonts with a 'slnt' axis.
