You needed GW to tell you to use a table size that'd fit in your apartment??
Apparently the vast majority of players wants standardization and wouldn't accept playing in a "non official" table. So yeah, GW convincing those stubborn players that it's ok to play on a table that fits in a small apartment is gold .
Worked with my group as well. While toning up/down lists has never been a problem here, convincing players to use different points formats and table sizes from the "standard" values is much harder, in my experience.
Standardisation helps for a lot of reasons, especially from a casual play. Where you may only have access to one or two mats or boards. Or where you are unable to use a table board to extend play space temporarily.
