It seems that px are a default baked into browsers while points are a default baked into the OpenType spec, so perhaps there needs to be some kind of flag to allow the two to be interoperable. 

Further to this: CSS px is not a physical unit, ergo it is impossible to optically design to it. The closest you could come would be to design to the CSS _reference_ pixel, which does have a physical size at a particular distance.
