The gnome mime database thinks OTF files are some kind of ODF file (as
documented in the ODF spec).

However the OTF extension has long been used for OpenType fonts with CFF data,
and it's easy to check font OTF files massively outnumber ODF OTF files in the wild (and are likely to continue as OTF is used for pretty much every new font nowadays)

Therefore the default should be switched to font file.

Even OO.o uses the OTF moniker for font files
