Comment (by RichWP - Felix):

 Thanx for your reply and consideration.

 A "small" thumbnail image size of the featured image never makes if the
 image can appear in a large size context and the an src-set should be
 implemented instead. At least that would be the expected behaviour from
 the pre-gutenberg era: see <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>

 The current implementation would not allow the use of the cover block in
 single post / page templates (theme building) where a cover image would be
 displayed in the post header. It will only work when within the editable
 content area of a post or page.
