--- Comment #2 from xanadu at mailbox.org ---
Such a reason might be that Garamond is considered as the most used printing
font ever. It's now about 500 years old but still used for printing a plethora
of books. The implementation named "EB Garamond" includes Latin, Greek
(+polytonic), Cyrillic and IPA in five different weights. No other libre open
source implementation has reached such a level of perfection and even
commercial implementations can't compete with that anymore. For all these
reasons, bundling EB Garamond with LibreOffice should be considered.
