The problem with "adjusting your browser" is that this requires creating a default style which is at odds with virtually every other site.

Which points to a significant problem with the Web: one reason we're inundated with crap styles is that the browser defaults are crap.

If the W3C and browser vendors set sane margins, padding, font sizes, etc., at least we could fall back to these rather than deal with the crap of current website design.

But the defaults are crap, and designers try to "improve" on them, and ....

That said, unstyled HTML (if that's what this is, I can't inspect the page) remains better in most cases than styled pages.
