I would expect that if a saved frame position is not available, the frame would 
be recreated at some default position, i.e. let the window manager deside. 

If the position is available, I'd expect the frame to be recreated there even 
if the size might no longer fit (the monitor is smaller). Some window managers 
will resize the frame to fit, so Emacs should not bother to try to fit the 
size.
