The only difference I see is that the weight of the text font now seems a bit better.

That's the primary change I made. Also, the font is a little bit smaller, but since Lusitana displays larger than EB Garamond, it appears to be the same size.

The font for the headers is still awful.

That's just your opinion. I take it with a grain of salt, since I know we don't always agree on matters of aesthetics. If you don't like it, you could propose something that works better.

And the text font is still way too big.

It is bigger by design. I don't have the design goal of cramming as much text as I can on the screen. I have the design goal of creating a comfortable reading experience and enhancing legibility. I have taken advice from the page TYPOGRAPHY IN TEN MINUTES. My line length is still longer than what that page recommends, and I don't take seriously the idea to buy a professional font (which seems a bit too self-promotional), but I'm otherwise following the advice from this page.

It completely wrecks pages with floating images on my 1366px-wide screen, e.g. the Chu Shogi article.

I took a look at this page on my 14.1 inch laptop with a 1280px-wide screen, and I saw nothing at all that was wrecked. I haven't the slightest clue what you think is wrecked on this page.
