In my opinion the better choice for a publisher is to let free the reader to have the maximum possible control over font sizes and over font family, line height, margins (zero for me in css, then I use my Kobo to settle what I want).
Many publishers, or even worst self published authors, like to take decisions that should be taken by reader, but a ebook is not a pbook!

The big publishers do this as well. They also set margin.line hight, sometimes font size for body font, and sometimes embed fonts that are b=not eInk friendly (not nearly enough weight)
