a bit related, i remember a couple years ago complaining that jquery's "slow" and "fast" as shorthands for preset durations was misleading because when animating on a wide screen, "slow" ends up being quite fast compared to a narrow screen width. you are never really defining the animation rate, as was implied. this is of course due to the fact that everything is based on a fixed duration being passed into the supplied easing function.
