Sorry, something went wrong.
@tacaswell argued that downstreams will already have to contend with changes in text due to FreeType upgrades, so keeping the old hinting defaults doesn't really help with backwards compatibility and makes things different for other projects for no reason. Followup to matplotlib#30161 (review)
