I don't like fractions like 0.16667 in any testcase either ... or
odd-looking fractions like 1.00542cm .

Well, yes. In order to meet my very own recommendations which I emailed
on september 25th 2007 with subject line:
"CSS 2.1 Test suite: minimal font size problem and issue"
I sent it to Ian Hickson but also to you. That email had IMO a few good
reasons to create 16px version.

What appears in
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-css-testsuite/2007Sep/0011.html
is not the email I sent but only Ian Hickson's reply to it.
