- upon changing the document units from px to mm one would normally expect the reported size of all objects to change by a factor of 25.4/90 = .2822222, so the size of the document would change from

(2500 x 1437.5) px to (705.5 x 405.7) mm

Instead, when the document units are changed to mm, one gets the file Wrongpaths_mm.svg.
The size of the black rectangle which represents the original document, is now reported as being 131.245 mm by 75.466 mm. (This is coming from the W: and H: spinboxes on the top menu after pushing F1.) This is much smaller than expected. These numbers are somewhat consistent with taking the viewBox width and scaling it by .2822222 but that is not what was expected.
