Indeed. It's probably unrealistic to try to support really small
devices. I mentioned that particular one because there was a clear
regression from the old style. I have re-tested it and now it's much
better, so thanks for the fix.
Arguably, the font scaling in the @media CSS is now a little too
aggressive. IMO 60% rather than 50% is a little more readable for the
576-768px range, and 80% rather than 70% for the 769-992px range, but
that's a very subjective matter.
