Point of order.

The browsers, well most of the modern ones anyway, allow us to set a minimum
font size.

None of them AFAIK allow us to set a *maximum* font size.

Think about this very slowly and carefully, keeping in mind the "sheep"
syndrome exhibited by the majority of web "authors" out there, as well as
their idiocy regarding proper GUI design:

What prompted the browser manufactures to provide us with an option to set
[only] the minimum font size?
