That second photo in the previous comment is the preview pane and cropping tool you're taking about, unfortunately.
however i enter the wallpaper app, either through three dots, use as, wallpaper, or through the home screen long tap process i described, the preview pane pops up with a massively oversized picture that I'm allowed to crop but not resize.
Looks like my pixel had something wrong with its wallpaper app.
at least the border trick works.
i did ask about this on reddit a couple years ago and had a few people respond with the same issue, so it seems like some crappo software some of us are stuck with.
I don't want to factory reset the phone over this glitch, given how many other pixel bugs probably won't be fixed anyway even after the hassle of a reset.
it's bizarre, but I'm glad that it isn't affecting you or others.
