Libre Office is just for the display.
Other products (like the Terminal!) use the font and having improper attributed 
style leads to a very poor experience.

If there is no bold/italic etc. form of the font, I fail to see the
reasoning to make it the default monospace font in the first place...

Since the UI to map fonts has been nerfed (in Xubuntu at least you can
only specify a default font) I was forced to manually edit my
~/.fonts.conf to set monospace to 'dejavu sans mono'. I do not mind
editing configuration files, but I sincerely believe a smart default
here would negate such a need in the first place.

The absurd view of my code editor (with monospace that is not mono-
spaced) is a constant reminder of this issue.
