No, it shouldn't matter.

Ok, I see. It seems that the problem here is this:
o menu-set-font returns the font name "courier 12"; i.e no
information about spacing, dpi
o no bitmap courier font has the exact pixelsize for 12pt on your screen.
o so Emacs selected a scalable font, that is the above "nimbus mono l" font.
I think "% emacs -fn courier-12" will also select the
"nimbus mono l" font in this environment.
Please try:
M-x set-default-font RET courier-12:spacing=m RET
Doesn't it select a bitmap font, perhaps the same one as this
startup font?
