Yes: make that face the default font for GNU Emacs. Then all  
dimensions will be computed on the basis of this font's properties.  
Or use a font a bit smaller than that face, so that GNU Emacs is  
always obscuring the whole screen – which also could lead to the  
effect that the echo-area/mini-buffer will lie outside the screen.

If you're not confused, you're not paying attention.
