Those people are not remotely affected. Only people who have modified configs
manually at some  point anyway.

The issues comes from KDE having a simplified version of the settings and
fontconfig having a super-duper blown mega complex config, which we couldn't
possibly summarise in a UI. Then we're in a classic problem of having two
sources of truth.

one solution we could do is make use of fontconfig cascading and put things in:
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/conf.d/00-kde.conf  then we wouldn't risk
overriding other files.

It means the KCM could occasionally lie, but only if a user has gone out of
their way to do their own fonts meddling - at which point it's on them.

Yes. Though it's best if we don't mix up bug reports with multiple topics.
