Is it possible to adjust the zoom in Safari's "responsive design mode"?

Is there a way to adjust the zoom in Safari's responsive design mode? The part I highlighted can't be selected unlike the other stuff. I'm using Safari 10.0.1

I wasn't able to find anyone asking this question let alone answering it. The closest is this: In Safari's "Responsive Design Mode" can you hide all of the device options on top for more screen real estate?

Seems like a really poor design choice for the browser to automatically adjust the zoom, show the percentage, and then not allow you to alter it...

(I can't believe this is my first StackOverflow question.)

Yes, it is possible. Try and adjust the width and height of the responsive "area" in the responsive view. The adjustment is done using the handles displayed on the left/right middle and the bottom center of the responsive viewport. The aspect ratio of the responsive view area is what determines the zoom level. If you make it very tall, then the zoom level gets reduced to display the entire height of the content in the fixed available space... Thanks.

At the time of writing you can't. You have to manually select x1 from that little dropdown - it's a real pain as that resets on each refresh.
