Rejoice, for your admins will feel more native to your surrounding computing environment and likely load faster, especially when offline, as they no longer have to talk to The Google Overlord.
At the time of introduction in 3.8, there were not good system fonts common to all platforms at the time. In the years since, Windows, Android, OS X, iOS, Firefox OS, and various flavors of Linux have all gotten their own (good) system UI fonts.
There will definitely be visual bugs, mainly around alignment and spacing; these should be documented and reported on the ticket and fixed more atomically so that our current and future selves have a better understanding of what happened and why.
The style remains registered, as it is almost certainly in use by themes and plugins.

* A variant of a language has its own locale, for example the locale of the formal variant of German is `de_DE_formal`.
* Update `remove_accents()` and some CSS rules to support `de_DE_formal`.
* Add tests for `get_bloginfo( 'language' )`.
* API changes will be deployed over the next few days.

The admin CSS was merged in #18314.
After a couple years as it stood,
The mess it had become just was no good.
One day we realized Grunt is pretty cool,
And said "we should use this as our build tool!"
Now we can maintain separate files with ease,
Using @import and cssmin meets all our needs.
Welcome to the future of the WordPress stylesheets,
And thanks to Slick Rick for the beats.
props jorbin for the initial patch.
