It looks like the themes are supplanting font info but not anything else.
For example, if I specify a setting in a theme file it gets overridden by
myLeoSettings.leo which is the expected behaviour. Having the font info in
a theme override that is inconsistent but could/should be offered as a
choice. Or we should pick one way of doing it and eliminate the choice.

I have always thought it rather puzzling to have self-contained themes and
then an entirely different way to set fonts.

My preference is to set everything related to UI in the theme.

I think that choice is Leonine. Whenever I propose a new way to do
something I try to phrase it such that there should always be an @bool to
offer choice so people can bend Leo to their own preferences. I believe
that the default should be the theme as it gives new users one place to go
to modify their UI experience.

I have totally ignored the entire "other way" as it may well be someone
else's preference. But for new users, it is terribly confusing.
