> No, it doesn't.  (Is that at all possible?  I'm not expert on fonts.)

Yes, it's definitely possible by scaling the font appropriately (and
not necessarily by the same amount in X as in Y).  To do that we'd first
have to introduce some kind of annotation/variable to indicate that the
text is intended to be fixed width.
