If the user tries to text zoom.
Yes, SVG text will not zoom if you text zoom. SVG is fundamentally a absolutely-position image, not a laid out document. The concept of text-only zoom makes sense for documents, but not for images, where the position of the text is far more important.
(This won't affect `<img>` embedded SVG anyway, however it is possible to embed SVG directly within HTML via `<svg>`, which is where this matters.)

The OS's font stack might render px-sized mono-spaced font text at width x, or it might render it at x+7. Edit: typo
