This is different from the observable notebook which ensured each row represented 6s (i.e. it had a fixed number of 60 columns). The auto-sizing seems to work well with both small and large recordings, although we lose consistency when we resize the window and some periodic patterns are no longer visible when we vary the number of columns.
