I quite liked the idea of the font itself deciding on its size, of its own free will ;-)
To stress the point, there is nothing that can intrinsically define the size of a font in the computer age. It’s partly arbitrary. It’s the same for clothes, actually. In the UK, my shirt size is a 15½ and my hat size is 7⅝. Go figure. so given that when picking up a conference t-shirts at bachotex you have to get one size smaller than you expect, one can also assume that the gyre collection designsize is somewhat oversized
