The effect only happens when the echo-area displays something that is
longer than a single screen line. Is something being shown in the
echo-area of your minibuffer-only frame?

No, it isn't. The name "echo-area" is reserved to the mini-window,
see Glossary.
> A standalone "minibuffer" frame also manifests the echo area
No, it doesn't. It serves as the minibuffer window, but it isn't the
echo-area.

It makes no sense to talk about resizing the minibuffer-only frame,
because it has more than one line to begin with.

It's not a bug at all. It should be closed.
