[Libreoffice-ux-advise] Liberation fonts vs Google croscore fonts

Bastián, when using Carlito specifically, I see that some numbers appear to
have different sizes. I'm far from my computer, but I remember that number
8 was taller than the rest.

Moreover, Carlito is based on Lato, which doesn't show that issue. Carlito
has a smaller x height in order to look more like Calibri, so I think that
this transformation plus a bañar rehint are the responsable of this.

That's why I'd advise against Carlito as a default typeface.

Furthermore, though I like Caladea, in my opinion it's inferior with
respect to Liberation Serif. Plus, --and this is important-- Caladea lacks
of greek support.
