I think this autofit feature is very disturbing if you are not aware of
it. From my point of view it should be removed because if what you are
writing does not fit in the available room, you should write less words
or add room (split the text on another slide), but not write smaller
when what you are writing is intended to be viewed on a projection screen.

At least autofit should not be activated by default.

I agree.

For users who don't know the autofit feature, it increases the
probability to understand why the text changes its size without having
modified anything. :-)
