Is narrow_symbols [all nerd fonts unicode codes] the only way to make Nerd Font in kitty look to Nerd Font Mono?

Problem

I discovered that kitty expands Nerd Code symbols by default, even if you specify it to use Symbols Nerd Font Mono:

symbol_map U+e000-U+e00a,U+ea60-U+ebeb,U+e0a0-U+e0c8,U+e0ca,U+e0cc-U+e0d7,U+e200-U+e2a9,U+e300-U+e3e3,U+e5fa-U+e6b7,U+e700-U+e8ef,U+ed00-U+efc1,U+f000-U+f2ff,U+f000-U+f2e0,U+f300-U+f381,U+f400-U+f533,U+f0001-U+f1af0 Symbols Nerd Font Mono

I also believe kitty includes Symbols Nerd Font Mono in its installation.

Problem is that some fonts do not look good with default behaviour (IMHO):

So I found two solutions for that problem. First is to include Nerd Font symbols to be explicitly narrowed:

narrow_symbols U+e000-U+e00a,U+ea60-U+ebeb,U+e0a0-U+e0c8,U+e0ca,U+e0cc-U+e0d7,U+e200-U+e2a9,U+e300-U+e3e3,U+e5fa-U+e6b7,U+e700-U+e8ef,U+ed00-U+efc1,U+f000-U+f2ff,U+f000-U+f2e0,U+f300-U+f381,U+f400-U+f533,U+f0001-U+f1af0

But it can be bad solution if Nerd Font changes those codes with update as it once did.

Second solution is to use dedicated Nerf Font Mono font variant:

font_family IosevkaTerm Nerd Font Mono

But it looks like you should not use patched fonts in kitty

Question

What is the most convenient way to do this. Maybe there is dedicated config option that I am missing? By mentioning Nerd Font Mono I assume this variant:

narrow symbols is the option and no NERD fonts wont keep changing their codepoints, though they might add more. THe change was because they originally did not use PUA codepoints exclusively.
