If that's their attitude you can't, because it's not a WCAG non-conformance. However, it should not be the developer's decision (nor yours), so take it up with the product owner of some other stakeholder who might care about it. If you can't get support at that level, leave it and fight the battles you can win.

Subject: [WebAIM] Wave alert: Very small text

Hi Everyone,

I encountered a new alert today, 'Very small text', the text is smaller than 10 px.

Will one need to actually correct this as there is always an option to zoom in, though I personally don't like doing that.

Also Wave didn't map it to a success criteria failure and I can't do it too. How can we pursue developers to fix this as they will only take up things related to SC failure?

Thanks,
Vaibhav
