Essentially this is indeed expected behaviour. When you change the size of an object (a path) by moving its nodes, this is not interpreted as a change in size, but rather a change in shape. This is most obvious for general paths, but carries over to squares and other "shapes".
Note that there is also a button to prevent patterns from getting scaled when you resize an object. (It is often quite useful to resize/transform an object without affecting the pattern.)
