Noooooo
Times New Roman is so pre-2007. It's a relic. It's also a serif font which is meant for printed documents, not for viewing on a computer screen.
Documents viewed on a screen should be in a sans serif font of which Calibri is a good one. Office 2007 came with Calibri as the default font.
Aptos has some advantages such as distinguishing a capital "eye" from a lower case "ell".
We need a new font that offers serif and sans serif versions, the ability to distinguish between capital "eye" and a lower case "ell", and slashes through zeros like Consolas font. A slash through the number seven would help as well.

Times New Roman goes to 1937 and the Times of London. It being a "relic" is a feature, not a bug.
Modern screens are of high resolution, and 14 point in PDF will be plenty legible. The documents are printed as well, so a print friendly typeface is NOT a bad thing.
Calibri is a Microsoft product that dates to the early 2000s. It looks too much like the typeface used on highway signs that proved to be a bad idea.
