No, you're not . . .
*BUT*, imagine working for an employer who had fixated on a set size;
things would be a lot quicker if everytime one fired up LiveCode to knock
of a *prototype* (hey, haven't heard that word for a long, long time) .

I generally don't care what size they're created at. I resize them as
I work by dragging the edges, as users do.
In those cases where I need a fixed size, the specific dimensions are
rarely discernible in advance, something I'll need to figure out after
I've done the layout.
In the rarer case where I need multiple stacks of a specific size,
chances are I need more common elements than just size, so I'll make
one how I need it and then clone it.
But those seem pretty rare to me. On desktop my windows tend to be
different sizes, and on mobile it's important that they be responsive
to any screen size; in either case the specific dimensions at the
moment of creation seem of little value.
