One of the rem unit's important features, if not its most important, is that size cascade is ignored.
Indeed the very point of the rem unit is to set the size of something using Cascading Style Sheets so that the cascade is avoided. Opinions disagree on whether this is a good idea.
When you set a width in rem, the ratio between base font size and the container's design width remains constant no matter how many layers deep that container lives, and no matter what the base font size is.
Normally what should matter is the ratio between the element's own font size and the element's width.
