I wonder, given the advancement of technology and the significant increase in pixel resolution on devices since SC 1.4.10 was first drafted, whether it is time for a modification of the requirements. The justification for 320px is stated to be because: "320 CSS pixels is equivalent to a starting viewport width of 1280 CSS pixels wide at 400% zoom." At the time this criterion first came into force, 1280px was a fairly standard laptop screen size. Also, 320px was a standard mobile resolution 7 years ago. However, neither of the above now stands up to scrutiny. The standard monitor resolution is now 1920px and the lowest resolution one can find on a mobile device is 400px. 400% at 1920px is 480px. Requiring no reflow down to 320px is therefore out-of-date for today's devices and to encourage stakeholder support I wonder if we can increase this to either 400px or 480px?
