Yes, but that’s a non-starter on the type design end of things, because px is an approximate, floating unit rather than an absolute size to which we can peg optical adjustments where they are most important, at the smallest sizes.

The whole pt vs px opsz debacle is due to browser makers following what Safari did without understanding the particular unit equivalences in Apple operating systems that are nit equivalent in other environments.
