I believe you're making a distinction that does not exist.

Whether I run a case 100% fully into a full length die, or in my case Redding body die, or just 99.95%, which will make it match my chamber, the case is "full length resized".

It's much easier to explain the process as full length sizing that is properly measured for your chamber than it is to start esoteric distinctions between 100% fully, really and truly "full" length resizing and the 2 or 3 or 4 thousandths less sizing that makes it fit your gun.

If I run a case into my Redding body die, I consider that case "full-length" resized, the die touching the shellholder or 4 thousandths above it is a matter of "proper" sizing versus improper, not a difference of "full length sizing" versus some unnamed other thing.
