Isn't changing the font weight a separate issue from fixing consistent
appearance across platforms, in that the font weight is a design
decision while using the same font and working font metrics are a bug
fix?

I propose that changing the font weight is treated as a separate step.
Miller probably consciously chose bold weight and we shouldn't treat it
as a bug. Personally, I'm not even in favor of font weight normal,
though I hardly care.
