If I understand correctly, when the user language is set to English, thus none of 69-language specific configurations are active, this configuration would take effect. Current configuration will make the ja variant take precedence over any of the Chinese ones, while the default of noto looks to be Chinese SC - which was exactly the cause of the issue for Japanese. Overriding it with ja as the first one will lead to similar issue to Chinese characters and I believe that's not what we want.

But for Chinese and Japanese community, i think that the answer is clear. noto-cjk is definitely better what we had before, like fonts- wqy and fonts-droid. Android community had received these complains for years, finally they got them fixed on lollipop. Fedora also set it as default chinese font start from F21. and of course, i still hope that ubuntu could drop those 69-language-selector fontconfig files, just like what F13 did.
