The font one seems like it's pushing it too far even for regular users since it breaks copy and paste.

Also this all seems like it would break accessibility regulations.

You are right, but I don't think companies care about accessibility. Facebook using the divs is already breaking screen reader.

Yes. See https://www.w3.org/WAI/policies/

I know it's currently trendy to make digs at China (increasingly common in HN comments) but it's a huge country with plenty of talented engineers and accessibility advocates. With an aging population [0], such accommodations are becoming increasingly important.
