What does this do - move the frame to the left display border or make it
fullheight/fullwidth?

Why is that bad?

If you refer to fullheight/fullwidth frames they have to act this way.
We could consider fullheight/fullwidth frames as "normal" but

(1) Windows doesn't know such frames so it can't handle them, and

(2) Emacs, if considering them normal, would forget about the previous
    normal size and you couldn't easily switch between
    fullheight/fullwidth and normal size any more.

But maybe I misunderstand what you want to do.
