And I wonder what speed tradeoff there will be for commonly cached/repeated fonts like Roboto, like maybe only makes since to inline less common fonts

AFAIK Google Fonts doesn’t allow browsers to cache the fonts for tracking purposes...
They do browser caching, but it's not as long as many would like for a static resource like a font. There is no proof they use Google Fonts for tracking, though, it's entirely possible they'll use it for that in the future...but I don't see a reason for them to do so. Google Analytics is already on most websites.
