Yes, I am aware of all that.
But you were claiming alt-dragging this as a specific feature of your WM, whereas AFAIK all X11 WMs support this. I don't know of any that don't.
Why do you assume that I haven't tried alt resizing? I would have thought that expressing familiarity with the functionality you're discussing made it clear that I know how it works. When I say I don't want it, that's because I've tried it and don't use it.
I'm not dismissing it! If you like it, that's great. I tend to do large scale window management via keyboard shortcuts myself. It's why I dislike environments which don't support the standard keystrokes, such as KDE's kwin, and ones that remove it, such as GNOME.
