That would require the reader to first determine the base font size of the original document and then calculate the percentage required to grow or shrink the base font to the selected size. Repeat for each additional font size used in the text (headings, footnotes, etc.).
It would be painfully s---l---o---w.
Still, some readers do better with the font sizing than others, so it's definitely something that can be improved upon.
