No, of course not.

No. Neither resizing the frame by hand nor using Win+left (or
Win+right) modifies the fullscreen frame parameter. That's what I'm
describing as a bug:

Case 1:
emacs -Q
resize by hand
M-: (frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen) => nil
M-: (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen nil) => nothing changes

Case 2:
emacs -Q
Win+Left
M-: (frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen) => nil
M-: (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen nil)
  => the pre-Win+left frame size and position is restored

Nothing different.
