That's because the absolute position of A just moved by a lot.  Let's
say you've extruded for 1000 A units.  The motor is at 1000*200.  When
you change the scale it suddenly wants to be at 1000*210.  If you didn't
get the following error you would have instead gotten 10000 stepper units
of extrusion instantly to "catch up".

You could put a gasket between the axis and stepgen to cancel out the
error.  I'm not sure how tricky that would be in practice.
