The question - what's the best way to see all of the TLD names in

sequence of UTF-8, what seems to get the most characters "to write
right"?

I don't mean to make this Mac specific, I'm curious if there's an
optimal solution.

I would not say it is the optimal solution, but what I'm considering for the IANA web site for a future iteration is font embedding. Web font embedding has become sufficiently advanced in the past year or so, that you should be able to reliably embed a suitable font in the CSS of a web page and not be dependent on locally installed ones. The advancement is both in all significant browser vendors now supporting the ability to embed fonts, plus importantly, type foundries finally offering appropriate licensing terms that allow for font embedding.
