And thus it's not a problem in distro font choices but a problem in kde code

Actually dejavu sans has ~ 5000 glyphs at last count, so there's almost a 10×
difference (and the default has been dejavu lgc sans which is smaller but the
default is likely to change for F9). Not that's the only or most important
factor in the default font choice, but it's one of them.
 
Moreover you can ask for changes/fixes in dejavu and get them a month later,
whereas the whole fedora → red hat → ascender circuit has till to prove it could
treat a single request.
