It is not a requirement. Packages that depend on it, like firefox, only depend on the virtual package ttf-font, which happens to be satisfied by noto-fonts: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/firefox/ https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/firefox/. This means that you get to choose from ttf-liberation, ttf-bitstream-vera, ttf-droid, gnu-free-fonts, noto-fonts, ttf-croscore, ttf-ibm-plex, ttf-dejavu or even all the stuff in the AUR.
