Thanks, Yuan Chao. Let me try so summarize then:

There is an issue with fontconfig, so it by default picks "Demilight" over "Regular" (bug #1556457). We have tried to work around this problem in 69-language-selector-zh-??.conf and
64-language-selector-prefer.conf (the latter for e.g. an English locale). The workaround is not effective in Firefox, though.

I'm out of ideas. Is there anything we can do but waiting for bug #1556457 to be fixed? (Assuming that will address the Firefox issue...)

Possibly, but if so it wouldn't be a new problem. With the Japanese locale, and with full Japanese language support installed, TakaoPMincho is there for serif.
