Due to your style:
body {font: normal 0.75em/127% ...
I really don't see why you shouldn't expect more complaints. You're

should have text physically sized to 56.25% of their preference. Without
zooming, it's certainly too small for me, regardless of my environment:

Your style causes IE shrinkage compounding, explained on:

Since you're using % to set explicit line-height, you'd do well to take
