The request is not about _setting_ the remapping of any face or set of faces.

The request is for the effect of text-scaling, from _interactive_ use of `text-scale-adjust', to not be removed when the major mode is changed and the buffer isn't switched.

IOW, same buffer: keep its current scaling regardless of (only) major-mode changes.

I don't want the text size larger in general or by default - of any face, let alone face `default'.

It's about interactive use of `text-scale-adjust`.  Seems to me its behavior should be only buffer-specific and not affected by a major-mode change.  Is that not a reasonable behavior to want, if not even generally _expect_?
