 There is a lot of inconsistency with how different devices interpret `in`
 units. They were originally used to provide ambiguity in the size of the
 preview to avoid themes designing specifically to the customizer
 breakpoints, but browsers and devices can also change they way these units
 are represented and that can be a jarring experience for users.
 Additionally, the tablet preview can become too similar to the mobile
 preview in the information it provides with respect to previewing a
 variety of device sizes.

 this issue is difficult to explain with screenshots due to the variation
 across devices, but a few are posted on slack at the above link.
