It is worth a try (Deja Vu Sans Mono covers a lot too), altough as mentioned on my previous message, Emacs sometimes uses another font when the default one encodes the Unicode char. On a discussion with an Emacs hacker long time ago he mentioned that maybe such font does not correcty report the chars it covers. On my Emacs v 25.0.50.1 on Kubuntu 15.04, started with -Q and setting the default font to "Source Code Pro" or Consolas, "Ume Mincho" is used for ∀, but with "Deja Vu Sans Mono" as the default font there is no problem. In any case, I don't see the anormal vertical size you report. There is a bit of a discrepance (maybe 20%), but it is expected when you (or Emacs, in this case) mix different fonts on the same line.
