        Hilarious that a big name website would implement minimum image sizes, but a very valid use case then. Cause nothing is more frustrating than having your upload being rejected for some arbitrary size limitation that doesn’t match between sites

      Practically? Almost no reason.

      Technically? I work on document viewers and there are times I need to inspect rendering times for “large files.” Being able to produce files of arbitrary size is beneficial for troubleshooting, but falls short of actual customer docs.
