In LucidaBrightOT:
<CharString name="equal">
230 108 190 rmoveto
-100 callsubr
163 vmoveto
-100 callsubr
-271 vmoveto
-100 callsubr
163 vmoveto
-100 callsubr
endchar
</CharString>
In LucidaBrightOT-Math:
<CharString name="equal">
108 190 rmoveto
-100 callsubr
163 vmoveto
-100 callsubr
endchar
</CharString>
Based on
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/cff2#9-local-and-global-subr-indexes
and LucidaBrightOT having 161 Subrs and LucidaBrightMathOT 456, my impression is that "-100 callsubr" calls subroutine 7 (107 -100), which is the same in both
<CharString index="7">
651 54 -651 hlineto
return
</CharString>
That's as far as I went.
