I’ve thought about ideal fonts for both writing/reading and programming quite a bit, and have been let down at the choices out there. It seems most popular monospace fonts (Fira Code, Iosevka, Ubuntu Mono, etc) attempt to either fit as many characters on the screen as possible, or are so wide, that larger sizes make it impossible to fit even a function on screen; both design choices hurt overall readability and end up forcing me to fiddle with line spacing, sizing, and custom font versions just to be somewhat happy. At this point I’ve just stuck to putting consolas on virtually every machine I use, but that’s also not great.

I really hope some font foundry out there focuses on designing something specifically for readability of large bodies of monospace/duospace text.

It’d also be nice to have a provable metric for readability, rather than the anecdotal evidence I tend to see, but I suspect this is hard in and of itself.
