I posit that it is mostly an inconvenience. I understand that most fonts
used nowadays
are encoded correctly, anyway. But there are exceptions and where they
are unavoidable
for chart production, getting a chart to display correctly trumps
copy&paste.
Also, the situation is never static, each version uses a different set
of fonts.
In either case, it's not the same issue as creating (and exchanging)
running text.
