replyNo, I'm comparing against "whatever the default is". It's the same with chairs or beds. You can get "something to sit on" or "something to lay on" for $0 or close to it. But I will gladly pay a premium for the same reason - I spend 8+ hours a day in a chair, and 8+ hours a day in bed, so I don't even blink at paying any price to improve my daily QOL for years to come. Even if it's only by a little bit, a little bit of QOL over thousands of hours is an investment in your own happiness.

There's plenty of room for more fonts to exist. I have yet to find a monospaced coding font I like with Japanese support, and would gladly pay $250 if I found one.
Eh. To each his own. If it's about making improvements, I'm sure I could think of something to spend $250 on that would be more effective than a font, speaking for myself. There is such a thing as good enough, for me.
