Comment (by romainmrhenry):

 I am sorry but your response is completely detached from the report.

 2048x2048 is one of the default sizes generated by WordPress.
 It is independent of themes or plugins.

 The linked source image is 1600x2000 which is smaller than this default
 size generated by WordPress.
 If such sizes are so problematic (they really aren't) then why is this a
 default in WordPress?

 This definitely is a technical bug.
 Please don't blame the user and actually investigate the issue.

 We also know many ways to circumvent the issue that doesn't take away that
 there is a problem in WordPress core.
 The existence of a workaround doesn't magically makes bugs go away.
