Default Word font size difference between Times New Roman and Arial

There seems to be a significant difference between the actual character size
of Times New Roman characters and Arial characters when they are both set to
the same font "size" (e.g. 12 pt.) My understanding of "points" is that they
fix the actual size of a character, so why does the size change when I change
font face?
