Doing this shows that the deltas mode only affects the autofit module. Even the 'light auto hinter mode (as it is labeled in ftdiff(1)) does not show changes when toggling the deltas flag.

AFAICT, in pango-view, with --hinting=auto, the text matches ftdiff(1)’s results when the delta flag is set. This suggests that pango does what you want. I currently have pango-1.28.1 installed, FWIW. As a side note, fc-match(1) tells me that 8 pt at 96 dpi is 10⅔ px; a 10⅔ px font at my display’s 133 dpi is approximently 5 7/9 pt.
