Yes, because of the {...} delimiting.
This makes part of the \newfontfamily  stuff local to that group.

You can scan through that tracing to see whether all is as
it is supposed to be, with respect to filenames of the fonts
being loaded, or being setup for later loading.

The fact that the document fails is irrelevant to obtaining
that information.


If you remove those braces, then you'll trace an awful lot more
of the document, getting masses more output into the .log  file.

The document may now process to completion, but it may be a lot
harder to find the relevant parts to font-loading.
