I type the name into the browser and it... oh, sorry. It's on the
bottom edge of comfortable with 75dpi fonts -- ie, it's not a
3x3-pixel letter and it's not poorly scaled -- and it's unremarkable
with 100dpi and with my usual "no, use Lucida 12pt for everything".

In particular, it wouldn't occur to me that it's particularly unusual
even in 75dpi "normal" mode.
