The subscripts need kerning in my opinion. Perhaps a cut in can be added at the left top side of the lowercase italic j. The space between k and P, J and j, and J and k can be decreased as well.

I tried using cut-in (AKA math kerning) when I worked on the font last time, but I found it impossible to get it to behave the same everywhere. The spec has an incorrect description of the algorithm of applying MathKernInfo, and LuaTeX follows the (incorrect) letter of the spec, while XeTeX and Microsoft implementation follow the (correct) intent, so we get widely inconsistent results.
