I'm finding a weak pattern when source is
dl.flathub.org. A
significant minority of
dl.flathub.org apps report rather huge
download sizes, and two or three orders magnitude smaller installation
size. I'm not seeing this for other sources, even for the same app. A

Is this a known bug? If not, what information is needed to file a

report? I can't imagine downloading this much data for one app, but
then it ends up not really needing this much storage space? That
doesn't seem possible.
Just a guess (I don't work on this), but maybe it's showing the size
including the dependencies (like the platform)? So while the top-level
flatpak might be small, the complete infrastructure to run it might be
huge.
