Running text within 3% of the width, x-height within 5%

None of the fonts that look most like Monofett sets text to its width and x-height: a swap would move lines.

Fallback while it loads

Until Monofett loads, this sets Courier New in its place at 85.1% of its size, so running text keeps Monofett’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.
