Live Photo: Changing key photo crops the image...

Basically as the title states. Take a Live Photo, go to Edit, then change the Key Photo and save. It automatically zooms in, cropping the original photo. Revert to original takes it back to the original un-zoomed image.

Live Wallpaper Zoomed In Whenever attempting to use a Live Photo as my wallpaper, the preview or static lockscreen looks as shown and excellent quality. However, when I try to use the live photo, be long pressing, the live photo zooms in around 3x into a corner of the photo and loses quality. Have read up on this with an old posting, have tried to take a live photo which would rule out a single photo, however the problem persisted. Have attempted to look into settings but only setting that comes to mind is the Display Zoom setting.
