Can we flip that around? Using smaller image sizes at the breakpoint means
it is currently speced the exact opposite of what mobile-first media query
best practices use: the non-MQ layout is for mobile and larger layouts are
defined to be used at the breakpoint and larger viewports with MQ using
min-width values.
Writing mobile-first style media queries that work only above a certain
minimum viewport width looks impossible to me since min-width means
"greater than or equal" and there is no MQ syntax for just "greater than".
The problem is that mobile-first is a best practice and not a universal
practice. There are plenty of sites that retrofitted their site to be
responsive; meaning they are desktop-first.
Still, it would be nice if the spec favored mobile-first and the
work-arounds were left for the legacy, retrofitted sites to figure out. :-)
