because Calibre's rescale ALSO uses the body to set the visual (size) tone.
Because I am not a EPUB purist .

If I leave it at 1 (or not there), the (margin) Page Numbers are the same size as the text AND it SMEARS into the last 3 letters on a line (the reason for asymmetrical margins)


Which would look visually better? (123 is the ADE supplied page number)
lastwords 123
or
lastwords 123 (zoom setting 3 emulated)
Setting a base in the body does not prevent user intervention at the device (but device intervention also affect the device supplied text. This way I control the size balance)
