By doing that, wouldn't you potentially lose some of the horizontal definition? The full definition previously provided by a given size of spot (which would remain constant) might be blurred by crunching in the picture horizontally.

If spot wobble isn't on the cards, I'd keep the picture size the same and use a vertically elliptical (astigmatic) spot.
