A joking objection: somebody that refuses to join due to sans serif would be harmful to the cause if they join anyway.
A serious objection: it feels wrong and dangerous to join a group that you don't support 100% at the time of joining. This feeling is adaptively correct because group efforts often drift or get hijacked, and a group that's a little out of tune with you is more likely to drift away over time. Especially if the group is new.

A group that's a little out of tune with you may well drift towards your position over time—especially if the group is new or small, and you make an effort to steer the boat.
