Of course it is when you have to deal with the fallout (either as the
entity providing the crash-prone toolkit or as the support entity for
apps that use it)

I could also misread your statement as "programmers that choose to use
core fonts are stupid" :p Since a lot of them do not do those
validations.

Fontconfig-using apps do not crash for lack of fonts, because
fontconfig has built-in font substitution
