Would you chop off the smaller bottom leaves?

The new leaf it’s pushing out seems pretty small. I just repotted recently, so I’m wondering if I should chop the lower non-fenestrated leaves to help with new growth. Tia!

No, those lower leaves are doing work for the plant! You also can’t tell how big the new leaf will be, as it will take some time to grow in, even after it unfurls it will continue to get bigger

Don’t do it. I did it. Now my plant hasn’t had any new leaves

I leave my smaller leaves to make it look fuller.
