Regarding pixelated reality vs. transparent fantasy
[edit]Obscuring through pixelation seems preferable to artificial blank space as a means of redacting the trademarked rooster logo seen in the source image. A pixelated field in the image makes the redaction explicit to viewers of the image (as it's used within various Wiki articles) without placing a burden upon readers to consult an image's file page in order to become appraised of the reality of the situation. Seems to better embody principles of 'least surprise' and honest representation than a digitally contrived blank space. As in reality the existence of a logo (ie. 'of something') printed on the space in question is a readily observable fact. Having 'something' in place seems better than faking 'nothing' -- at least so far as facilitating accurate encyclopedic communication to readers of the various WikiMedia projects which make use of this image.
This matter was recently addressed in talk page discussion on one of the wikis wherein the image is used: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Talk:Sriracha_sauce_%28Huy_Fong_Foods%29#Infobox_bottle_image
