Why do we have to cut charm squares to 4 1/2 inches ?

This is my best guess, without knowing what pattern you're looking at...

If you make HSTs from your 5" charm squares, they will square up to 4 1/2". Patterns with a mix of HSTs and regular squares will need the regular squares trimmed down to 4 1/2" so that they can be joined.

If I had a pattern that called for 4.5" squares, I'd cut my own. My thrifty nature would not allow me to willingly waste that much fabric from charm squares. I just couldn't do it. LOL
