I think we /can/ remove the LANG guards for the japanese case, as this fontconfig file (69_…_ja-jp.conf) only refers to takao fonts. What if we were to do that and to move the configurations out to the font packages they refer to? Would this cause problems for Chinese users?

I don't see such a simple solution for Chinese - zh_MO/zh_HK and zh_CN/zh_SG have the same configurations, but there are differences between the two sets. And anyway I now understand that if we remove all LANG guards then one configuration (happens to be the Chinese because that's later alphabetically) 'wins' if the user has both Japanese and Chinese fonts installed. This is a problem because the fonts share glyphs. Do I understand this right?
