Why is that? Why should we make a condition for that font to download?

It is for font optimization, if page don't use any of this character from this range then font will not download. This is effective when we are importing fonts from third party source like https://github.com/fontsource/font-files/tree/main/fonts/variable/open-sans/files. All fonts won't get download, only characters used by page, that fonts will get download. But in our case, we are self-hosting only two files that are used. So will not see any difference in optimization. But I decided to go with font source importing style.
