Object Sprite hit detection not scaling

Anyone having problems with scaling an object in the layout and finding that the hit detection from the original object sprite has not scaled with the sprite on the layout?

I usually try to import an image to the exact size that I need anyway, so this is really the first time I've encountered this peculiar collision boundary issue in scaling objects in the layout view.

I went ahead and just rescaled it in the editor itself rather than importing a new png. The new PNG would have added 4 mb to my project, but scaling it in the editor only added 1.5 mb.

Though I could see the appearance of the sprite has been enlarged by scaling on the layout, too bad the collision boarders did not scale with it. Could have saved a bit more size on the project.

Someone let me know if this collision boundary not scaling with layout scaling of sprite is as intended.
