The rasterization should be consistent throughout the system and consistent with applications, where FreeType (i.e. NativeRendering) is the default. Qt's SDF rasterizer (QtRendering) is also low-quality and unsuitable for many type faces. The notifications widget also forces NativeRendering in one of its components rather than leave it open for discussion. Inconsistency regarding font rendering is already a foregone conclusion. Unfortunately, however consistent NativeRendering may be, it just //doesn't pass muster//. (This contributes to why designers and book publishers prefer mac over windows). Also it's hardly random, it's specifically targeted at a label or a //single// portion of the UI that's affected by this consistently and gravely.

Why should it be reverted? If it worked without anyone even noticing it did, how can this be a problem? If it ain't broke...
