Natural map sizes

These GeoMap elements all specify height={px(240)} and omit width and aspect. Each derives its width from the projected fit target, including map padding. The surrounding Frame hugs that measured size.

The globe is square. The regional view uses its projected longitude/latitude box, and the narrow longitude band produces a slender frame. Bounds also clip land, water, and overlays to their projected outline.

Natural sizing works with sphere, data, selected-ID, and bounds fits. Rotation and spherical clipping affect the ratio; the raw ratio of longitude span to latitude span generally differs from the projected ratio. An explicit aspect overrides the preferred outer ratio. If both dimensions are fixed, the map preserves that allocation and fits the geography inside it.
