(this issue is from the review I did as part of PING's HR review)

Currently the text states the following:

The supported resolutions are presented as segregated imageWidth and imageHeight ranges to prevent increasing the fingerprinting surface and to allow the UA to make a best-effort decision with regards to actual hardware configuration.

I wasn't able to figure out whats meant here. Why does reporting the imageWidth and imageHeight values independently reduce fingerprinting surface? And what is meant by a "best-effort decision"? Does this mean "best effort to reduce fingerprinting surface" or something else?
