Keep in mind that Cantarell's hinting is broken, so the more hinting it
receives, the fuzzier it gets. [1] And Cantarell is used all over the
place by default, so going down to slight hinting will make GNOME look a
lot better... but a GNOME bug probably shouldn't dictate the default.

I'm not an expert, so this is really all I have to say about that.
