Is there any hint that a font suddenly appeared among tens other fonts on the
system was installed by LibreOffice? Is there any warning when a user decided
to cleanup installed fonts that one of them is required for LibreOffice? Is
there a guarantee that the problem (visible only when working with formulas)
would be spotted shortly, so that user could possibly associate the removal of
(s0me) fonts with broken behavior of Math?

I don't argue that this is *possibly* a good-to-have thing, but they are
independent, and this one is rather low-hanging fruit that doesn't prevent that
one from happening once.
