Why not 1em for standard text?

Bought a new book today, and as it seems books from this author the size for standard text is "never" 1em. It's 0.933em (another book from him has 0.93em).

(He also uses larger right/left margins than most.)

Is this a cause of using something like Indesign or some other tool? Or is there an actual good reason for not having 1em? (For normal fiction, not poetry etc.)

Curiosity killed the cat..
