When you put the text together like you've done above, I don't see any other advantages, I misunderstood you to be talking of ems for text and/or container elements, as that was my approach... Sorry for the misinterpretation though. What about my suggestion on a convention as to how we show and explain the two (valid) different approaches to page and font zooming? As far as I've understood your position, you can hardly find it useless because only one of the approaches is interesting/useful.
