I have two examples where the zoom is welcome:

- news article, we use this quite a lot on a sports forum
- I have a client that scans a lot of old comics

We could download the image and zoom so if it is nuked I’ll be ok with this, but I think it’s still a good feature, especially on mobile.

Maybe make the slideshow the priority for more consistency but add a 🔎 button if we want to zoom
