One thing that's interesting about all this is that it shows the BeBook must be doing part of its scaling by redefining the size of a point. On ADE the 'bad scaling' example using font-sizes specified in points doesn't scale at all, whereas it looks like when switching from M to larger sizes the BeBook changes the number of pixels making up a point. So not a bug as such, just slightly strange behaviour.

What happens with margins or image sizes defined in terms of points (or inches or millimetres)? |

Of course a millimeter has not always been a millimeter either. |
