You aren't providing any details about your machine or the fonts used.
It seems to me that the default variable width font in some situations
is not ideal (as in the screenshot Eli provided for his MS-Windows
machine).

Instead of protesting the switch based on that, I'd suggest we improve
the way we pick the font so that we end up with something acceptable (or
even good).
