You cannot reliably convert a relative unit into an absolute, because you
don't know all parameteres the relative one is influenced by. This is even
more true when inheritance comes into play.

"Most" is disputable, but in some, yes. Some give it in points instead (e.g.
12pt), which may or may not compute to 16px on a certain screen.
