That's because these commands are explicitly meant for temporary or
transient changes, and their effect is buffer-local.

If you want to change/customize the _default_ font, there's the
Options->Set Default Font menu-bar item, and after selecting a new
font size (or an entirely new font), you can select Options->Save
Options, and have the change written into your init file.

So I don't see a bug here, and I'm therefore closing this bug report.

Please in the future try giving us a bit more credit, TIA.
