HANG ON A SECOND!

Discover is sorting all applications by INSTALLED size rather than the size of
the DOWNLOAD.

Below are the first few items in the 'all applications' list when ordered by
size in Discover (and their reported sizes by Discover in brackets) along with
the output of 'flatpak remote-info' commands for each application;

0 a.d. (3.4GB in Discover)
flatpak remote-info flathub com.play0ad.zeroad
Download: 1.8 GB
Installed: 3.6 GB

010 hex editor (243.7MB in Discover)
flatpak remote-info flathub com.sweetscape.ZeroOneZeroEditor
Download: 80.7 MB
Installed: 255.5 MB

2006scape (155.9MB in Discover)
flatpak remote-info flathub org._2006Scape.Launcher
Download: 61.9 MB
Installed: 163.4 MB

This is not very intuitive. The expectation when reading a reported size in
MB/GB when downloading an application is that you're reading the size of the
downloaded file, not the size of the unpacked/unzipped/extracted file which has
been installed onto your system. As per comment #2;

>The funny thing is, the installed apps are in the correct order!

This explains why. Apps in the 'Installed' page are listed by installed size,
which is why it works here, but not when searching for apps.
