   Yeah, this behavior is not intuitive. The issue is that the height and width here are overriding the height and width properties of the Image renderer. So this is roughly equivalend to

   import plotly.io as pio
   pio.renderers["png"].height = 300
   pio.renderers["png"].width = 300
   
   import plotly.express as px
   fig = px.scatter(y=[1,2,3])
   fig.show("png")
   

   So here, width and height are really the default width and height. And here I think it makes sense for the figure's own width/height to take precedence.

   But in any case, we do need to put some more thought into precedence.

   Right so this is the same as fig.show("png", width=300, height=300)
