Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] `system-ui` behavior is undesired for some users (#3658)

> Please note, _all_ issues I have been looking on `system-ui` (StackOverflow, and including your issue) points to this specific target group: Windows, Simplified Chinese users; literally no other languages have any related kind of issues.

Well, `system-ui` isn't great on Japanese Windows either. Yu Gothic UI, the font which is resolved when `system-ui` is used on Windows (10+), looks like a condensed typeface thus is not great when used in paragraphs. People complained when GitHub added `system-ui` to their theme so they tweaked their CSS to add Meiryo for readability https://github.com/primer/css/pull/1573 .

I really wish people use `sans-serif` (or `serif`) instead of `system-ui`; `system-ui` takes away users' ability to customize fonts in browser settings...
