Scale is an operation, not a property of the object. Thus there is no such
thing as an initial scale.

No matter what you say, y is and will always be defined as <0,1,0> and y*2
is thus <0,2,0>. That's how vector operations work. The vector operations
don't care what keyword is in front of them, they always work the same way.
