Font in default install of ubuntu have changed little since first ubuntu but most of them dont add to individuality,uniqueness,distinct.people want font that not only look different but should serve some kind of use.no need to include 350 similar fonts or 200.fonts should have features to make them italic,bold.even some condensed fonts look good.
