Thank you for giving an example. It seems that the embedded bitstream is CFF font, not a color font, maybe it's a monochrome font for fallback purpose. FontForge can extract it.

Acrobat Reader: complains it could not extract embedded BXIAXX+MagicalUnicornNeueProColor
Microsoft Edge (before Chromium-based): show monochrome fallback font
Google Chrome: show monochrome fallback font

Regards,
