Couldn't disagree more, I get headaches from blurry text, so I daily drive Terminus TTF, and have done so for years. Modern font rendering really has becole quite terrible unless you own a high DPI screen, even when using full hinting.

And no, subpixel anti-aliasing doesn't help, the colour bleeding is even worse.
