Description
When you setup web icon, it always creates "cropped-"[filename] icon file, even when you upload precisely 512×512 png file, so that the new file is exact copy.
(and btw it is not optimal that for icon you have to go to customizer and for logo you have to go to site editor. IMO both should be logically defined on options-general.php admin screen, where is the site title and description and then as a block in site editor you could change the logo as well).

Thanks for the report!
I found some further weirdness in my testing. If you remove the icon using the remove button and select the source 512x512 image again, it makes ANOTHER copy. You can repeat this process a bunch of times and each will result in another cropped copy made.
@joedolson mentioned :
Two things: 1) should be able to skip cropping if the image has the right dimensions, 2) should only create a cropped version once.
Moving to 6.3 to keep visibility on this and work toward a resolution.
