Tim, you wouldn't see a difference between resizing an estate and kicking one out?
This quote from the lord's management of estates heavily favored my above conclusions.
As the lord of Orde, you control its estates. You can kick out knights for any or no reason, and you can change the size and name of estates.
Changing the size of assigned estates, especially reducing them without agreement or a very good reason is often considered ignoble and may make the knights unhappy, so consider your actions carefully.
Between this and the allowance for preferentially distributing gold based on unit types allowed me to think that my conclusion was acceptable. But this is why I raised this topic for discussion as it wasn't entirely clear.
