Ready Player One publisher font, for example, does not render nice on the PW - too many small thin lines that tear apart. For that font even the 212 ppi of the PW is not nearly enough.

I'm not talking about taking away the option to turn off publisher fonts, I'm talking about defaulting to on when there are embedded fonts. Some eBooks need to have the fonts on in order to work properly. Like using special characters or achieving a certain look (like [/i]11/22/63[/i] (which works very well with the embedded fonts)). Yes, sometimes the embedded fonts are not all that good and in that case, turn them off. But they should be on by default so people can choose for themselves. I would think not that many people would check for publisher fonts and could have a sub-optimal reading experience because of this.
