Almost. 95% on body is telling users they've screwed up choosing their
browsers' default sizes by choosing a size that's too big for their own needs
or taste. You have no idea what theirs are, nor do you know they haven't
already set DejaVu Sans, Verdana or Arial as default family to bias text
larger than the typical serif defaults.
