Making language-selector-zh-* Chinese specific will leave 65-nonlatin
the only one active to set CJK font proprieties under non-CJK locales
(such as en_US etc).

Sadly, 65-nonlatin is terribly outdated, and put Japanese fonts in front
of Chinese ones; this causes the famous mosaic problem when viewing
a block of Chinese text in these locales, see

New 65-nonlatin has been proposed by no one in the upstream
to pay serious attention. You can find more discussions here:
