10.68.1.2 Prevent ugly hyphenation point in Danish

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=728437

Apparently, with babel in Danish, the word Dynamics is allowed to be hyphenated Dynami-cs. I know I can write e.g. \babelhyphenation[danish]{dyna-mics} to prevent this, but then Ia^\200\231ll have to take care ...

10.68.1.4 How to patch (redefine) the standalone's \subpreamble command?

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=728514

I'd like to patch (redefine) the standalone's \subpreamble command but my attempts seem to fail. Here's an MCE that I expect to fail to compile because of the \aaa command, but it doesn't:

10.68.1.5 How are \fontdimens for a font chosen?

I have noticed that some fonts in LaTeX seem a lot more "spaced out" (e.g. Latin Modern) compared to other fonts which feel more "cramped" (e.g. STIX2). This is most noticeable ...

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=728529

I created the following code to make a siunits+number random generator, but it gives a misaligned  SI units when I want it to be in the same line. How to fix it?
