That is true, but AFAIU modern systems come with font coverage that is
not bad at all, including for rare and ancient scripts.
I think we should limit specifying particular fonts in our fontset
setup only to those cases where either the "normal" search for
suitable fonts is likely to fail, or if some font is really superior
to the alternatives.
