Why the sarcasm/insult? I don't have to have this conversation, and I
certainly won't if you keep this attitude.

Of course, it does.

Yes, and that's equivalent to what text-scaling does.

Yes, as expected. Text-scaling, by contrast, is a buffer-local
behavior, and buffer-local behaviors get reset when the major mode
changes.
So we have no made the full circle.

Not very different, since we now have global-text-scale-adjust and
friends.

Yes. As I pointed out at the outset.
