That's where I'm confused. E remembers their new (bad) positions if I restart E while X is running (i.e. it won't put them back there they were before it messed them up), but if I restart X (and E), they do go back where they were supposed to be. How is that possible?

Sure, there you go: https://pastebin.com/NpZt9zCA All the resolutions I see in there are 3840x2160 Not sure what to grep for, but I found this: move resize 0 0 -65536x-65536 -> 0 0 3840x2160 move resize 0 0 3840x2160 -> 0 0 3840x2160 move resize 0 0 3840x2160 -> 0 0 3840x2160 Does that help?
