We've allowed it in the past when the package has been of significance. Like nvidia and fglrx before those were rewritten.
And we've fixed them and they're not broken any more.
Though I have all the fonts in my own ~/.fonts, I'd prefer to keep the package in the repos. Installation was at 70% in pkgstats.
Since when are we concerned by that? Our philosophy is to create the distro in a clean way, not to do weird hacks just to satisfy our users. Our userbase is very comfortable with the AUR and they have always installed missing and problematic applications from there. ttf-ms-fonts is no different, it is in the AUR (with a clean package, http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5418).
