  I quite liked the idea of the font itself deciding on its size, of its
own free will ;-)

  To stress the point, there is nothing that can intrinsically define
the size of a font in the computer age.  It’s partly arbitrary.  It’s
the same for clothes, actually.  In the UK, my shirt size is a 15½ and
my hat size is 7⅝.  Go figure.

        Best,
