This (a user choosing a font for the default face that has no bold and/or
italic variant) is really an exceptional case, in fact it wasn't easy to
find one to test that case. So I think the answer "The font you have
chosen for the default (or variable-pitch, or...) face has no bold (or
italic, or...) variant" is more than satisfactory for such exceptional
cases, and I think that adding more complexity to an already rather
complex code to handle that exceptional case better is not reasonable.
Also, I'm pretty sure that with the better solution you suggest, other
users would complain and ask "why is Emacs using so many different
fonts?". Again, this is just my opinion.
Perhaps the most reasonable thing to do here would be to display warnings
in such cases.
