Cannot download original images, only large #11

I cannot specify any parameter to download original images, only large images (restricted to 2048px). Is this an intentional limit or an oversight?

Twitter seems to serve large and medium images by default; you must specify original images to get the full resolution picture. For example, the normal URL for my test image is https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C5A9PgGUcAIcqx-.jpg which is 1280px (medium), but you modify the URL to https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C5A9PgGUcAIcqx-.jpg:orig you get a 4096px image (I doubt Twitter stored the original 5472px version I uploaded).
