I believe this is to do with when you maximize terminal windows and the
like as they provide resize increments (I don't know how they do
this).  Try resizing a terminal and you'll see it "jump" in size
increments, the size of the font you use.

Having said all that, I have never noticed a difference with it on or
not myself (I have it on).  Presumably though, if it's on, windows
will always maximize to your entire screen (slit etc settings aside)
but if it's off, it will maximize to the largest possible, whilst
still taking into account the window's preferred stepping size (in the
case of a terminal, that's the size of it's characters).
