              ^^^^^^

Hardly an absurd combination.  cmd-opt-+ adds, cmd-opt-- (minus)
subtracts.  It's also a very nice feature of word to customize the
font menu.  Why on earth would I want to have to scroll all the
way down the list of fonts if I want to use Zaph Chancery if the
majority of the time I only use Time, Palatino, and Helvetica?
It's nice just being able have the fonts that you use and nothing
else.  And on those rare occasions, the added effort to hit a cmd-D
is minimal...
