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?

Occasionally someone will complain about the normally hidden price column because it's possible to catch its handle and widen it when you mean to widen the balance column.
