Why we say this

What this recommendation is based on

A 47 x 24 inch surface was reported cramped above two players, while 3 x 5 feet was described as the sweet spot.

Real-table report: A published owner table dimension or explicit fit outcome informs the recommendation. It is field evidence, not a controlled laboratory measurement.

Dimensions are planning recommendations for the declared setup, not universal physical minima. Layout, edition, scenario, organizers, helper apps, and expansions can change the result.
