Comment (by spacedmonkey):

 I think the case of a theme like TT4, you would go through and change the
 images. The images are designed to be placeholders. But if you were using
 block themes patterns to build a site for a client / friend, you may use
 block patterns to "hardcode" img tags into patterns. These patterns maybe
 be heavily designed and are not designed to replace images. Let's get out
 of the mindset of thinking about themes in themes of how core themes work.
 I think we should expand our testing to include popular block themes, like
 frost or ollie.

 The issue here is a developer education one. There is no simple way of
 knowing the height and width of an image. So developers have to give us
 that.

 That said, I do think we should focus on the gutenberg issue. At the
 moment, even if a developer does the right thing, it will appear broken.
