RE: Responsive Design should be required

Ø  I stand corrected. View>zoom>reflow will allow for a psuedo responsive display of content. Wraps based on the window width. Works only on desktop.

And doesn’t work with forms, and other types of content.  It has some limitations, I’ve seen things such as charts from MS Word block reflow from working on an entire page.  The feature is necessary and does provide benefit but does need attention to make sure it works as needed.

is this what you were looking for?  or does this not work well?  or does it require special treatment / consideration by the author in order to work?
