Fixed width fonts have a special purpose. They're designed to fill that purpose, not to be optimal for other things.

There's an age-old debate of how much "good taste" is subjective, but in this particular case, it's someone hammering a nail in with a wrench. Some will be bothered, others not, but it's definitely the wrong tool for the job.

The example of not liking lights in certain places isn't a very good one. It's an attempt to elide all "things people don't like" into subjectivity, but there are actually things that are better and worse. You would agree that website design can be better or worse, right? And that some people would have a better eye for good or bad design? With me so far? I'm saying you're probably not one of the people out on the end of the spectrum that's best able to recognize good and bad in design, but I hope you recognize that good and bad design exist, and that people vary in their ability to recognize it.

I want to say to you, in earnest, things will get better and a bad period in your life will almost always unexpectedly improve sooner than you would think.

This an extremely weird passive-aggressive flex. The thread basically went, "I think people that notice font problems have something wrong with them." To which I respond, "No, designers and design-y people notice stuff like that." And then to go from there to this is pretty, bwah?
