You forgot the discussion from February already?

Please explain the "why"

I definitely say "-1" to removing Andale Sans UI unless you refer to
the thread in earyl February and explain why you still think it is a
good thing to do.

This is a bogus argument, as the there is a font-list especially for
the purpose of finding a font that covers the glyph-area.
And I kind of doubt that Arial Unicode has less glyphs than Tahoma. Do
you have an example?

This is fine with me.

But again:

You had those comments in February already. And now you come with the
very same proposal of removing Andale Sans UI without even referring
to the previous thread.
