There was nothing to prove. You're always right ;-)

OK. But if the criterion to count something in the text height is that
of being "just another window", we shouldn't include the display margins
in the text width.

A frame, according to the Elisp manual, is a screen object that contains
one or more Emacs windows. When with emacs -Q I evaluate (frame-width)
and (window-width) I get the values 80. If I split the window into two
side-by-side windows (frame-width) still evaluates to 80, but for both
emanating windows (window-width) evaluates to 38. Somehow 4 characters
got lost in a black hole. And bug#14222 demonstrates that Emacs itself
sometimes doesn't understand its own nomenclature.

Yet it's the most accurate description of an Emacs frame I could find.
