Of course you could compile the whole expression in Typst, but then the Let is different from the rest of your font that you use on a slide when you just use the standard PowerPoint text boxes.
Instead, I'd like the Let to be displayed in my custom font in this case, such that I get more consistency throughout my slides and don't change between different text fonts all the time. I'm totally fine with using the custom Typst font for the math typesetting, but would just like to use a custom text font.
Maybe the easiest way here is to just use the Typst font for everything, including text. But this may not always be desirable.
