You’re right. He said “rightmost column” and I read “rightmost visible column”.

Personally, I think that the ambiguity (of what’s being resize) is a small UI 
defect. Discriminating the two cases may actually make for a poorer UI 
experience. We don’t know the exact circumstances, but avoiding having the last 
column being resizable seems like a better outcome, if there’s a way of doing 
it.

I think that would be reasonable, too. It’s kind of a variation of the previous 
suggestion.

Looking at Finder windows in column view, I see that it’s able to discriminate 
column resizing from window resizing when the last column ends at the edge of 
the window (though it’s not always clear that the correct cursor is displayed). 
But it’s really hard to tell exactly where the mouse is pointing, since pixels 
are mostly pretty small these days.
