Discussed font-based fingerprinting concerns (which were brought up in TPAC) with @justinschuh today, and summarized Chrome's position on the matter over in the issue tracker:https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4055#issuecomment-535727663 …
What about different versions of system fonts? There are a bunch of versions of e.g. Arial which are probably distinguishable for fingerprinting purposes.

If a browser cares sufficiently about that, they're free to include their own versions of the fonts and vend those. (To my knowledge, tho, nobody's concerned about that particular entropy leak.)
