Adjust My browser for each site?

Thanks for the helpful replies from this group regarding
the use of tiny print in Web design. The explainations
were quite interesting and answered many questions. I
found one reply I thought would be fun to ask this group
for their opinion on as it seems to reveal the attitude
of the type of people who may design the useless tiny
print sites. This person replied to me:

"This is because you, the consumer, can go to your browser
window, such as
   IE5, and VIEW | TEXT SIZE | LARGEST ...

.... and make this tiny text size as *big* as you want....
anytime, without bothering the web-designer...."

While this is certainly true, as a consumer using the Web
to make a purchase in the $4,500 range, am I expected by
most Web designers to adjust my browser for each and
every site I visit? Am I expected to finish the work for
the designer?
Thanks,
John Bellstream
