Notes from the above thread:

"that's a p5 web editor bug, it's trying to stringify the whole font including parsed font data, which is too large of an array."

"that would be great thanks! we may want to just add a special case there for p5.Font to ignore some propertiesI feel like we had similar issues in the past with vectors having a reference in them to the p5 instance"
