 Thanks so much for the ping!
 I love changes like this to help folks' images look their best.

 Yes, it's my recollection that it was done for the purpose of file size.

 This was a long time ago, but I also have a suspicion that a bit depth of
 some sort needs to be set for resizing to work properly on various
 versions of Imagick.

 I think it's a great idea to set it to the same bit depth as the source
 image, and when I was looking, it seems that was my preference 9 years ago
 (wow, it's been some time!).

 I also see @joemcgill dug into this, and might remember more details on
 the specifics.

 He noted that at the time, it `seem[ed] to be the default way a few image
 editors (including Photoshop) handle optimizing images for web (even
 PNG24s).`
