Besides, ARA General Belgrano sank with great loss of life in 1982.
In general I agree with you but if the vanity font is for chapter headings, I'll just shrug. But when they specify the body/paragraph font then the steam starts coming out of my ears. (And of course even more comes out when they specify the line spacing, borders/margins, and font size.)
