After seeing this proposal I tried playing with Noto Sans Mono. I find that while it comes with many weights, none look right to me. Language is English.
I'm testing in emacs. My usual default is Source code sans semibold and I find that very pleasing. I also tried Dejavu Sans Mono semibold, which looks very similar. But if I try Noto Sans Mono, no weight looks right. Medium is too light, and the next weight, semibold, is too heavy.
