Hello,
In the example given,
(x-parse-geometry "35x70+0-0")
⇒ ((height . 70) (width . 35)
(top - 0) (left . 0))
--------------------^
should that be (top . (- 0)) from x-parse-geometry?
--- background context ---
I landed on the above documentation while trying to figure out the following.
I am unable to make-frame have frame height 36 with the following setting in
~/.emacs
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 36))
and in ~/.Xresources, I have
Emacs*geometry: 80x36
Calling `emacs -Q` I have initial frame height of 4, the next make-frame has
height 36, the rest of the next make-frame events have height 4.
This is for build detail as follows
GNU Emacs 26.2 (build 1, x86_64-unknown-netbsd8.0, GTK+ Version 3.24.1)
of 2019-04-15

This is because x-parse-geometry returns height/width in pixels,
but make-frame expects height/width in characters. Please use
`text-pixels' for pixels. See more at (info "(elisp) Size Parameters")
