Although the initial proposal did not meet the expectations due to a misunderstanding with the name of the project, your second proposal looks fantastic. Good job there. I find one small issue, and that is the letter "i" in maati with the used font as I can see more "maat1" than actually "maati". Nevertheless, I did not think I would leave a comment here, but I could not resist.
I will not deny it, I also notice it, the problem is that it was between eliminating that element and having something common, or leaving it and having something different.
I think if I eliminate a small part solve this problem
By doing it this way I have to solve the kerning
