Why hasn't Mozilla fixed an issue where text incorrectly displays as bold?

I re-developed my website late last year with Wordpress. While testing on all browsers I noticed that text specified as regular or thin fonts displayed as bold on Firefox only. It looked fine on Chrome and even the normally sketchy Safari. I spent hours and hours trying to fix it within the confines of my WordPress template and various plugins to no avail. I searched the web for an answer to this a number of times but nothing worked. I found a ton of posts by other developers having the same issue btw.

Finally, yesterday, I searched the web again and found some CSS code to put into the main style sheet:

html {

 -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
 -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
 font-smoothing: antialiased;
 font-weight: 400;

}

/*** Firefox specific rule ***/

@-moz-document url-prefix() {

 body {
   font-weight: lighter !important;
 }

}

Since this is an issue many others are having and has been around a while, why hasn't Mozilla fixed this yet?

I don't the End user help forum is for programming issues. That should be directed to the bug Mozilla support to look into that.

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?

Did you check in the Inspector what font and font settings Firefox uses?

You can right-click and select "Inspect Element" to open the builtin Inspector with this element selected.
