No, not correct no - doubling or tripling, or whatever.
When you set, for example, html * { font-size: 2vw' }, you are setting base
font size for the page(s), 1vw is 1% of the screen's viewport's width. So,
if, for example, your viewport width is 1704 pixels, then 1vw will equal
17px, and 2vw will equal 34px. Then, when you set a font for any element,
let's say <p> to 2em, the actual font size will be 2vw (base font size you
set) x 2em (the font size you set for <p> element), which will result to 68
pixels.
