Because you assume no one will want to see that font in its original
metrics, and don't provide any way for users that might want that to
get that back. There's no "fire escape".

Isn't it much easier (and cleaner) to set up Emacs to not use that
font for these characters? There are quite a few good fonts out there
that support these symbols without such huge ascent/descent values,
just use them instead.

Well, I hope someone does. Thanks for your efforts, regardless.
