Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Tall and legible
Like its parent DejaVu and grandparent Bitstream Vera, this has tall and easily read letters.
Pro Clearly distinguishes clashing characters
Panic Sans has added uniqueness for characters that are easily confused, such as "0" and "O", "l" and "1".
Pro Clarity and appealing to the eye
There is great line spacing and italics in Panic Sans.
Pro Even spacing
Courier Prime Code is a monospace font with adjusted Line Height.
Pro Support for standard font weights
Courier Prime supports Bold, Italics, Bold Italics, and Regular font weights.
Cons
Con Line spacing is small
This is a "pro" to me but some folks dislike the smaller space between lines (which is why it raises the underscore, which might otherwise vanish).
Con Courier Prime Code 0 (zero) is distinct from uppercase O (Oh)
In the other style, Courier Prime, the 0 (zero) is not distinct from uppercase O (Oh).
Con 1 (one) and lower l (ell) are very similar and can be confused
