Thanks for the confirmation :D

I'm answering my own question here. Through a simple fc-query query, I 
figure out Courier New is the first font in the list that has full 
Vietnamese coverage and is, therefore, preferred.

I suggest we remove Courier New from 60-latin.conf since 
ergonomics-wise, such a thinly rendered font should never be considered 
as a default. Liberation Mono, as its metric-compatible alternative with 
similar language coverage should be chosen instead.
