Personally I set the unity icon size to 32px and the launcher to never
hide, I lose a few horizontal pixels, but it is much easier to use
without the launcher popping in and out every time I want to use
something on the left side of an application. I am unconvinced that an
autohiding launcher is the best default to have, it is on the left
because the modern widescreen  aspect ratio is in fact a shortscreen and
vertical pixels are at a premium, however horizontal pixels are cheap
and the launcher is useful to look at even when you don't want to
interact with it and launch something or switch to something. Having it
permanently visible makes it a lot easier to move the mouse to the icon
I want to click rather than move the mouse to bring out the launcher,
then look up and down for the icon I want, then move towards it, then
bring out the launcher again because it vanished whilst I was using it!
