RE: What am I overlooking?

It was fascinating to me to see how inconsistently Jerry’s example rendered across browsers. IE9 did something still different and what I saw in the four browsers Jerry reported on, my observations were quite different than his.

 

Would we not expect SVG in HTML to render more consistently across browsers? If so would that be an SVG WG thing or an HTML5 WG thing?

 

Cheers

Judging by the content you should add: viewBox="0 0 500 550". Otherwise 
you might get some parts of the svg clipped no matter what (depends on the 
resolved size of the CSS box for the svg).

Alternatively you could set width and height to the same absolute values 
(500x550px).

Or you could add some CSS:
html, body { height: 100% }

My recommendation would be to define the coordinate system with viewBox.
