I haven't seen much evidence that this is true. I went looking among law school web sites last March. I looked at 16, mostly the well known variety. All but about 3 set text size that totally disregards user preferences,
mostly around 11px. The largest body text used by any of them was CSS small, on at most 3 of them IIRC.
