User agents are not required to reflow a currently displayed document
due to pseudo-class transitions. For instance, a style sheet may
specify that the 'font-size' of an :active link should be larger than
that of an inactive link, but since this may cause letters to change
position when the reader selects the link, a UA may ignore the
corresponding style rule.

Sounds to me like UA's are allowed to discard any rules from bad
webdesigners because they're bad ideas. Means that even if I have
catered for the page to remain balanced whilst giving a larger font on
hover or active, the UA may just ignore this style rule because other
designers fail to recognize the issue :S
