Ovation Pro's algorithm for choosing variants may be simple but it doesn't
I never said it was simple - just that it doesn't work as well as one would like.
has it been tweaked to accommodate some particular fonts to try to make it appear more intelligent than it really is?
It has not been tweeked for particular fonts - however it does depend on a knowledge of font names - e.g. if the name has "bold" in then it assumes that is a bold font. If the font designer decides to use "reallyblack" then it won't recognise that as bold.
