Comment (by flixos90):

 @azaozz Would love to get your input on this idea.

 Related question about #48736: Reading through that ticket, it appears we
 simply do not generate a scaled-down PNG because the image could be
 larger. Shouldn't we introduce a file comparison check like I'm proposing
 here in any case? This way we could potentially remove that condition to
 not attempt PNG downscaling and instead make a decision afterwards which
 image is "better".
