I am not pushing wqy's font as the default font at all. I am only trying to tell you what it is, and how it differers from the others fonts that people are using. Whether it is suitable to be included in ubuntu as the default font, it is a decision totally up to the Ubuntu management team, in this case, Arne and his colleagues at Ubuntu.
On the other hand, I personally do not like firefly's bitmaps, so do many friends that I know, that's why we modify it since 2004. This is just flavor differences, and we are happy that we have seen many supporters from CJK users in the past.
