Nowadays you can resize windows from any border even if there isn't actually one, eliminating the need for this ugly triangle in the bottom right corner.

Since window border and the sizegrip are set in two different windows, disabling the sizegrip by default makes it completely undiscoverable.
Also, though I agree that you can resize the windows from the borderless borders,
1/ as far as I remember this is true only when compositing is on (and maybe, always on wayland; did not check. In fact it is probably completly broken on wayland atm).
2/ the hit area is much larger than the out-of-window borders; and the area is always visible.
So that (for me at least), is is much easier to resize from this handle than from the invisible borders.
PS: I recal that "no borders" is not the default for the window decorations borders, so that the resize handle is indeed not visible by default.
Thanks, Hugo.
I just checked and resizing outside of windows works when I disable compositing. On Wayland there were some changes/fixes going on there but I need to check.

Right but it shows up as soon as you actually choose "No Borders" :)
