Maybe I'm just weird (my wife says I am) but I just wasted many hours of my time trying to find out why I couldn't read a web page. I don't know enough about html to know whether this unfortunate rendering behavior is a 'feature' or a bug. Perhaps you could visit the URL and experiment with different settings for 'minimum font size' and tell me if you think firefox 'does the right thing'. My opinion is: rendering a page that can't be read is not a reasonable default -- at least there should be a warning popup that explains the reason for the illegibility.
