I'd like to just tell Calibre to insert the metadata without any font every time by default, but I can't figure out how.

Probably it's very simple and I'm being a twit about it...? I did try searching for a solution but couldn't find anyone else as bothered by fonts as myself!
You need to create an override for the 'jacket', see ==>> Overriding icons, templates, et cetera

Copy the 'jacket' folder from the <install>\resources\ directory to the <config>\resources\ directory and then edit the 'font-family' entries in the stylesheet.css file, see ==>> W3 Schools - CSS Fonts
