I agree - a rename to "size assistant" or "sizing assistant" would be useful. In my opinion, the new solution is not harder to find than the old solution - which was pretty hard to find and even more disconnected to the actual symbol than the new solution. I agree, it is still a bit hidden, but it belongs to the expression - that's why the current solution isn't bad.

Not sure if data-defined override for Symbol Size should even be connected

In master UI refactoring, area or diameter selector disappeared, and we now
have an assistant for that.
Expressions directly typed refer to size (diameter) and are no more
influence by this modifier.

I think we should rename 'assistant' by 'size assistant' so that users see
that more easily, and maybe put it in bold font.  I'm afraid that they won't
see that tool because they are very used to this widget.
Thoughts?
