As you yourself described, using that font is not "without problems": some glyphs come out truncated. > * If Latin Modern Math is the only font that covers a particular character, we've changed "incorrect line height" into "square boxes in place of symbols", which is hardly an improvement over the current behaviour. It's an improvement if using Latin Modern Math produces results that are unacceptable. This bug report says loud and clear that the results are indeed unacceptable. > * If users install a fixed version of Latin Modern Math, is still won't be used unless they also remove Latin Modern from the ignore list. Does such a fixed version exist? I doubt that. I see several fonts whose names match ".* Math" which all have this problem. So it sounds like this was done on purpose, and the font designers will not fix that.
