As I said, it's not fixed, there is a mode setting (T28 byte 2) which
alters the matrix size. This is documented in the protocol guide, if you
have it.

You can also verify this if you want: change mode setting, backup, reset,
and read the information block, you'll see the matrix size changes. I've
just checked that myself on an mXT224.

I also asked the guys at Atmel that I work with, and they confirm that this
behaviour is as designed.

The position of the touchscreen within the matrix is a separate
configurable setting, you're confusing the two.
