Please, consider "backporting" (they can be clearly cherry picked) the
following patches from master to emacs-28:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/commit/65fd3ca84f75aee0dfebb87fa793dae57c1caf35
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/commit/dae3c4e89b27fa008d029a30cf7bd02fc3fbb6e2

I consider rendering Regular fonts as Medium (a.k.a Fat -- makes my
eyes suffer) fonts a bug, therefore I'm filing this as a bug report.

Thank you,

Sorry, we're only fixing regressions in Emacs 28 at this point, and this
isn't a regression (Emacs has never supported these weights before).

Closing.
