What is the default warehouse size when executing CREATE WAREHOUSE?

Explanation:
When you create a warehouse without specifying a size, Snowflake uses the smallest compute capacity by default. That default is Extra Small (X-SMALL). This keeps initial costs low and gives you a baseline you can scale from if your workload grows. If you need more power later, you can alter the warehouse to a larger size (Small, Medium, Large, etc.) or enable more clusters as needed.
