Are you sure fonts don't degrade gracefully? The font stack can always fallback to serif/sans-serif right? Icon fonts are a different beast though.

I disable web fonts. That makes many sites very difficult to use. Yes, icon fonts are a part of that, but also the change in metrics messes up some layouts rather bad.
