`rem` would imply that design system has control over root font-size. But in MediaWiki, that's the skin's territory. So depending on `rem` will make the interface vary widely across themes. See T262928: Use opinionated `rem` setting across Wikimedia Foundation deployed skins <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262928> for a possible way out of this problem. `px` units are an accessibility no-go as users can't override them in settings. See https://github.com/wikimedia/stylelint-config-wikimedia/pull/105 and 104. These are the reasons why we've remained on `em`s where necessary despite the compounding effect issue.
