That's at least 50% practically impossible anyway --- a graph with 'set 
size ratio' turned on changes shape outside the control of 'set size'.
That's how that whole feature works.  Even after you fixated its
bottom left corner, its top right one can be anywhere.  I don't see how 
changing half the problem is of any help.  It would be just as easy to
adjust the main 'size' parameters manually, such that the difference 
between left-justified and centered position of the actual graph area 
becomes negligible.

I find that unacceptably obfuscated.  This is basically a change to
the origin and/or margin settings, not to the size of the graph.  It has 
no business being controlled as part of 'set size' at all --- even less 
so being hidden in the sign of a must-be-positive parameter.
