My mistake. I thought you were looking for a kepub solution rather than wanting to debate what constitutes a "bug".

For whatever reason, Kobo have decided not to include a built-in monospace font and workarounds are the only solution currently available for kepubs. If you really want to limit yourself to 'standards' then embed your monospace font and restrict yourself to using 'Publisher Default'.

I'm sorry I wasted my time trying to help you.
