Unidentical VM Sizes in a Hostpool
Team, Apart from recommendations, I would like to understand the logic or use case behind possibilities of allowed unidentical Sizes of sessions hosts where Host Pool has a Session Host Size attach...

I just don't understand why you want to still have differences between vms in the same host pool. At the end the best way to manage the load is the use of the right Load Balancing algorithm + scaling mechanisms . This will allow you to keep the same experience for any user on any virtual machine . You just need to ensure that you virtual machine size design meet your needs and if not just redeploy a new host pool with new size. Templates should be your friend to make your deployment easy and effective.

Hi
Azure virtual Desktop is not an isolated solution, since virtual machines inside and outside the host pool have exactly the same features you still can do actions outside the hostpool .In addition to your example you can have disk operations like moving from Standard SSD to Premium SSD in the VM configs .It's possible outside but not from the host pool unless you redeploy the host pool with the correct settings . You can leverage other mechanisms like resource locks to avoid individual changes and use automation to deploy in a quick and a consistent manner .
