Sorry, I thought it was some DOM special attribute, not a style's one.
The problem then lies in the fact that instead of using width/height
to set dimensions of the element some other attribute is used.
For example if that sample was written as
img {
width:*; // flex width
max-width:max-content;
height:*; // flex-height, spans row height
content-sizing: stretch keep-ratio;
}
then you will get what you want.
In other words the problem is in the design of flexbox itself -
in the manner how you assign flexibility.
