brion added a comment.

So if I'm reading the above comments correctly, these banners want to use the 
width capping specifications ('w640') in img srcset, but Safari and our JS 
polyfill only support switching on the device pixel ratio ('2x').

I suppose you might be able to rig up a fancier polyfill (there probably are 
some out there)... but beware that a JS polyfill will run *after* the browser's 
already started downloading the image it originally selected, which in this 
case will be the giant one from the native srcset. So that may not be an ideal 
solution.

Consider also using a CSS background image which would allow using a @media 
selector on the screen size, and will work across more browsers...
