With "these fonts" do you mean _all_ fonts-noto-* packages, or only (as 
I suggest) all except -extra?

Did you experience _same_ delay initially, with and without the -extra 
fonts, or are you just still experiencing _some_ delay?

Sorry, I don't understand you - you say "it is true" but then add a 
"but..." which (I assume) cancels that previous statement.

So do you agree or do you disagree that you can reduce the burden of 
your system by avoiding fonts-noto-*-extra packages (and nothing else, 
i.e. no adjustments to desktop environment except if you have done 
something custom yourself to depend explicitly on one of the exotic 
flavors of Noto)?
