No, not vice-versa. Choosing not to use a feature is not the same as
preventing other people from doing so.

Yes, there are tradeoffs, and since I don't design frames I don't know
what the effort involved at allowing them to resize is. I assumed (like
modal dialog boxes) that it's simple.
Resize? [Yes|No]
If it requires lots of coding, then I see your point.

> I thought frames were evil? Sounds like you're promoting them. :-)

I had not posted an opinion on frames per se. (As a user I find well
designed frames to be useful for what the web designer will let you do,
but very frustrating if you want to do anything else)
