JPEG is a lossy compression scheme. the reason it gets its high compression
factors is that it throws away stuff. it was designed specifically for
photographic use (Joint Photographic Experts Group = JPEG).

In which case, there is no sensible logic to it. If you tell the
programme to save the file at the biggest possible size, the logical
thing, to me, would be for it to save everything. If it proceeds to chuck
away information after getting that instruction, it is not a clever file
format for photographic use.
