But that's precisely the mystery.  It clearly indicates that Win+Left
does something different than just setting the frame size and position
and I don't have the slightest idea what that could be.

For example, if I here first evaluate

(modify-frame-parameters
 nil '((height . 61) (width . 80) (top . 0) (left . 0)))

which gives my frame the same height as FULLHEIGHT and then evaluate

(set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen nil)

that doesn't change anything.  Can you understand the mystery?
