My suggestion is that the srcset (or <picture>) should assume that images are "2x" scale by default.

Doesn't this makes the assumption that pixel density is the most
likely reason for needing the alternative image rather than viewport /
image dimensions?

Those two cases are orthogonal — one doesn't exclude the other, and I'm not claiming that it solves the "art-directed" case.


In fact, even if you have adaptive cropping of the image, you'd still want image resolution to match display's DPI, e.g.

[email protected] vs [email protected]

and possibly negotiate on both axes at the same time:

[email protected] vs [email protected] vs
[email protected] vs [email protected]
