Indeed but it's nice to know that it is possible for those cases where
it can be quite useful.  

In my case, it's often when I'm presenting the solution to a
mathematical problem in a class and the whole solution is one line too
long to fit on a single slide.  I use very large text by default (bigger
option in beamer) so a temporary shrink is not horrendous!

For the record, and to have this post be somewhat on-topic, shrinking a
single slide is achieved by adding a BEAMER option property to the
frame's headline:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  * The frame title
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_opt: shrink=10
    :END:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
