Apple messed up the whole preferred font size by having a smaller 
default size for Safari than other browsers. That meant that the 
site looked wrong on Safari if not hardcoding the font-size, from 
the viewpoint of customers. YMMV.

If the site is "responsive" you should get it right by zooming 
the whole page anyway. And it makes sense to have larger figures 
if you need larger fonts.

Others in the thread has used the term "pixel perfect" to refer 
to the "px" unit.
FWIW "px" does not refer to pixel, but is a perception related 
unit which is based on the normal view distance to the screen. 
This is usually rounded off to the closest whole pixel block 
(1x2, 2x2, 3x3 etc).
