 > 1. Servers will use more CPU to create the extra images. More CPU usage
 = more energy cost

 I think you may be misunderstanding this a bit. The latest decision here
 was to not create two images for each sub-size, only make WebPs. This
 would not increase the server resources needed after uploading an image,
 and will reduce storage space requirements as WebPs are smaller in size
 than JPEGs.
