Of course users should always be able to switch the fonts to whatever works best for them. I wish ePub allowed specification of main text font in the *.opf file so that readers could over-ride it with a GUI but they don't.
But anyway, I was under the impression that you were suggesting that if dyslexia was my concern I should use something other than Clear Sans in my ePub archive.

You are saying that we should use what fonts we want to use. Yet your embedded these fonts will prevent some people from doing just that. Plus, some of us find your choice of fonts rather unsuitable. Why not just leave out these fonts? You are doing more harm then good. Kindle users won't see your fonts and some ePub reader will curse you. Other ePub readers will just never buy your books again. So stop the shenanigans and dump those unsuitable fonts.
Oh and your comment for the fonts should read...
I chose these fonts because I have no idea what I am doing and I don't care about my readers.
