For years Comic Sans has been recognized as being one of the most readable fonts. It even is considered to be a preferred font for those dealing with dyslexia (http://www.luzrello.com/Publications_files/assets2013.pdf http://www.luzrello.com/Publications_files/assets2013.pdf).
This seems to be a classic case of form vs. function.
