Oracle SQL Developer: Arial Unicode MS and other fonts not available

In SQL Developer's (version 21.2.1.204 under Windows 10) Preferences, under Code Editor \ Fonts, several expected entries do not show up in the list of available fonts even though the limitation to monospaced fonts is lifted, and Environment \ Encoding is set to 'UTF-8'. Among these are "Arial Unicode MS" and Google's Noto fonts.

According to this post... how to make sql developer display non-English character correctly instread of displaying squares? ... and others, at least "Arial Unicode MS" should be available.

And yes, these fonts are installed and work fine in all other applications that allow font selection.

What's going on?

I have been able to verify on another workstation that fonts installed with local admin privileges ("for all users") DO show up in SQL Developer. I guess this means the original question can be considered as "answered", though a real solution is pending.
