There are font where all glyphs fit in the em-box, so even with a 1em leading there are no collisions. There are other fonts where the ascenders or descenders extend outside the em-box (calligraphic fonts are often in this case), and they need more that 1em leading to absolutely avoid collisions, exactly how much depends on the font
