I really agree here, as someone who uses nerd fonts a lot[0]. There should always be a default without nerd fonts.
That said, what does it actually look like without? The docs say "render properly". I haven't tried it yet, let alone without nerd fonts.
That also said, I'd give this one a bigger break than most. If you're doing development work on a machine you probably got decent control and at least enough space to install fira.
[0] I suspect there are two types of people that are terminally terminal: those that are just in their own shells and can always control their full environment and those that work in many machines. I'm the latter, but I tend to notice the latter are also the former, but make different choices because of this, or at least smarter dotfiles that will change things based on environment or (like me) have source install scripts (you can always build a program locally ;) I'm glad people live in the shells, but I hope people making TUIs can realize that there's a bunch of us that have to move machines constantly.
