Oh sh@@t, I understand what's happening here.
The default look-and-feel still appends the Regular stylename to the font,
and since font stretch is a programmatic way to set a font style ("condensed")
this too is overridden when a stylename is set.
That does NOT apply to letterspacing.
Noto Sans, left 83% stretch, right 88% letterspacing (same width reduction):

Seeing this now it does look more like what I see in the Mac GUI, and
probably looks less different than a condensed font. I'll check this in the
code later today.
