Hi

Do you have a specific reason?

For lmodern the old version of the math otf font was shipped in the lm opentype dir, so it was activated.

Some TeX applications use fontconfig to search for fonts (xetex)

Libreoffice might get math font support, these fonts are not the normal TeX math fonts, but are more like Cambria Math.

It might be very well useful for gimp, libreoffice, inkscape, whatever users!?

So unless you have a specific reason, I tend to keep them in there.
