Oops.  I must be just not used to seeing the word written in uppercase.  Actually, I think technically it's equal to the font height, and an en is half of this.

But this doesn't seem to fit.  Usually when people increase the size of a browser window, they expect to see more content at once, rather than to zoom in.
