Legibility is not a fad, and it certainly isn't limited to web design. Legibility has been studied for decades, font foundries have worked to perfect the balance between style and legibility, and the principles are well-understood.
This goes back to your crack at Material design, something wholly irrelevant to what is being talked about by me and GP. Design frameworks are not the arbiters of the legibility of text.
That you think legibility is an optional extra for text is simply bizarre. Sure, it mightn't be the author's number one priority, but that doesn't put it out of criticism's way. Legibility is not simply a passing trend.
