Нет! ;-)

But more seriously, this is not a fair comparison. Latin fonts typically 
take less than 1 MiB (for a pure Latin font – fonts like DejaVu that cover 
much more than that are of course larger!) and cover up to 135 languages 
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_languages_by_writing_system#Latin_script). 
CJK fonts typically take more than 20 MiB (the smallest is WQY MicroHei that 
already weighs more than 5 MiB) and typically cover 1 language (and could at 
most cover 4 languages).
