Look at it this way: The desire to have them be the same is faulty. =) It is the nature of a well designed web page that it doesn't assume the size that text will be displayed. It's like that on purpose. You shouldn't assume anything about the browser, just serve up the page in pure, unadulterated html, and let the cards fall where they may. That would be 'getting' the Internet. Think of the people on cell phones. I know it will be a tough sell to your friend, but you've been right about this so far as you've resisted it. That said, my browser of choice is iCab, because it renders strict html, tags a page with icon to tell you if it contains 'good' or 'bad' html, and even has Bigger and Smaller buttons for text size so you can change it on the fly (I just clicked. Cause I coud...). "This page Optimized for..." is an 'embrace and extend' strategy.
