At some point in the last couple of days, the default +body/+headings font on my copy of Office 365 changed to the Aptos font. I honestly find it a bit hard to read, and I'd rather choose my default body font from a choice of whatever fonts I have installed. Failing that, I'd take Calibri again. The Aptos font reminds me a lot of
Since this affects all Office products, I can't say go into Outlook and change the stationery fonts; this doesn't impact the Reading Pane.

This does not work if just adding a new worksheet to an existing workbook that had the new default setting when the workbook was created. What's the fix for that?
That is correct. As I wrote in the message to which you replied, changing the defaults apply to future workbooks.
In Excel for Windows, you can modify the font of multiple sheets at once if you first group them by Ctrl + clicking the worksheet tabs. Remember to ungroup before you make any additional edits on the workbook.
