Be careful what you glean from that URL or the one it refers to. It's hard to
imagine anyone proffering CSS instruction not knowing that an 8px em box
doesn't contain enough pixels to draw complete characters for every glyph in
all common web font sets, much less for CJK fonts.

ATM I cannot fathom the right words to share in public describing any
recommendation of use of an 8px font size. It's hard enough to find sharable
words for recommending px for font sizing in any context. By definition, px
font sizes disregard whatever size users find optimal, and that, besides
being rude, is inconsistent with my understanding of the reasons for and
nature of responsive design.
