If some directory is "world writable", it is recommended to set the
sticky bit. Else, everybody is allowed e.g. to remove files or rename
directories. What *exactly* is the problem of the sticky bit in your case?

The fonts gets installed by a script. Setting any suid bits on scripts
is not recommended for securiry reasons.
