    If you have a container, you may wish to specify things like size, location etc...
    if you add a component to that container, you also may want to specify where that component will be inside of the container, or the size, etc...

    Not at all... I've asked some silly questions too, and learned something from all of them
    There is no such thing as a stupid question, perhaps a misinformed one, or one that doesn't show any effort, but nop, no stupid questions!
