In normal latex the situation is similar: \mathbf prints its
argument in a specific (bold) font and normally can/should be used
only for characters and numbers.

I do have a bold version of XITS and of STIX. But both font doesn't
work flawlessly on my machine here - neither with xelatex, nor with
lualatex (I don't know if it is a problem of the fonts or of my
version of unicode-math/fontspec).
