Should be core
I used ACF Pro for the first time today and within 15 minutes I had made myself a repeater field and encountered this problem. Bonkers that this isn't baked into such an expensive product.

Nicely done, works perfectly
I am using the single-file drop-in version of acf-autosize with Code Snippets and changed the min-size to 100. Works perfectly and makes my custom post forms look m lot better.
