Your visitors don't need to resize text if you use their default in the
first place. If in your design of a page you are setting sizes on
everything, particularly mostly or entirely smaller than
100%/medium/default, because you think everything is too big otherwise,
then you've neglected to appropriately set your own default to what it
should be. Main body text should be the user's default, and little
except "fine print" should be as small as 80-90% of the default. See
also URL below.
