Is unifont intended to have correct widths for terminal usage?

I ask because from the look of things, many, many characters have been drawn in full width 16 x 16 pixels, when they have narrow wcwidth, and terminals display them in one 8 x 16 character space. This leads to an unacceptable appearance, with characters either overlapping, (in xterm and similar terminals) or being squashed horizontally (in PIEtty).

If this is the intended behaviour, who do you envision using your terminal-incompatible fixed width font?
