Fonts which are too small or large, or text lines which are too long, are objectively harder to read. Other design choices similarly have measurable impacts. Jakob Nielsen's methodology of timing task completion and measuring completion accuracy is a UI/UX testing methodology which removes subjectivity.

I compulsively CTRL+wheel-up and CTRL+wheel-down all the websites that I read until the "right" size appears, so I do not really care about the font size setup by the author of the site. But probably my behavior is not very representative.
