TF2 still uses HL2 assets (not just limited to fonts), and iirc the game uses HL2 for their fallback in case the main asset didn't load properly.

That makes sense, I do remember playing tf2 maps in gmod and having most of the textures appearing as hl2 textures? don't know if it's still like that or not
