Yes and no. Non-variable fonts and named-instances of variable fonts continue to work as before. Variable-font patterns will get weight and width as ranges instead of double, and old clients will fail fetching width/weight.
Nice.
I was afraid it would mean they just fail outright. But this is good. :-)
Also, does this mean that a font such as Voto Serif GX will list 500 different variations in a font selector dialog?Yes.

Thanks!
