Well, I thought that some different size at least would show that we are not stuck to A4 or letter -) When printed from acrobat, this document is mapped nicely on 21 cm or letter (auto scaling). Although in principle any layout is possible, in preactice such a change would mean that all verbatim stuff should be rewrapped. The current settings are more efficient, especially because the setups also take less space when wide. (Otherwise the manual would have 100 pages extra, which is what publishers of comupter books like, but I hate.)
