Wrong!
You got any stats to back this claim?
I could ask you the same question, but in reverse to back up
your claim.
Except that by your claims defaults dont matter because people change it
so often anyway. Considering the number of usability studies that show
the opposite I would be pretty skeptical of that.
Just about all users over 40 need reading glasses. Many users now
have large screen monitors (> 17" viewable). Both situations beg
for increased font sizes. Many users install 3rd party, even M$
fonts. There's countless posts on all Linux related ML's, NG's,
Forums, etc., about font choices an changing and/or sizing them.
So why do WM's include the ability to change from default fonts
and sizes? If "Most users dont change any font defaults".
There a number of preferences which users dont usually change. In other
words, just because there is a preference doesnt mean everybody is using
it.
The problem is mainly with Gnome, that uses such a small default
font size, and an almost always incorrect default dpi (96). BUT,
also includes a tool for changing font defaults, including dpi. The
problem is these changes aren't preserved during logout.
You have a bug report on this again?
Rahul
