In your example the pt values on the rect are going to be evaluated
under the viewBox transformation, which has already effectively
converted user units to pts. I think you want this:
<svg width="100pt" height="100pt">
<rect x="25pt" y="25pt" width="50pt" height="25pt" fill="red"/>
<svg viewBox="0 0 100 100">
<path d="M25,50L75,50L75,75L25,75L25,50z" fill="blue"/>
</svg>
