I'm not sure it's all that inconsistent actually.  For example, when  
you specify multiple fallback fonts, you are creating a situation  
where a run of text could render with glyphs from any or all of the  
fonts in the list.  In practice this doesn't happen that often, but  
the reality is that a fallback list can really result in a "multiple  
font' rendering for a given run of text.
