But the same considerations apply to weight, slant, and width: shouldn't we
prefer an identical value for each one of those, if that is possible?
font_score has its own ideas about which one of these 3 is "more equal",
AFAICT.
And if no suitable candidate is found by making these 3 attributes free,
then we are back to the same problem, now with non-numerical attributes.
Right?

So we will be back to the same problem with those.
