I’m new to GnuCash so I admit I’m not sure I fully understand the question’s 
impacts.

I have figured out I can resize each column manually, but what does confuse me 
is why (at least on macOS) a double click (as opposed to a right-click) 
activates what I believe you’re referring to as autosizing. 

Nonetheless, I can get used to that. But, I would expect that if I double click 
on the column a second time, it should revert to the earlier size, no?

Why ditch the price column?
