Potential bug when using Scale effect

Closing. This doesn't seem to be an issue anymore.

I'm still getting this issue for images that are smaller than the crop size. Settings per this article: https://interactiveknowledge.com/insights/how-use-automated-crop-module

Selected image: 275 × 183

Crop type: Landscape (3:1)
Aspect Ratio: 3:1
Soft limit: 1440×480
No hard limit.

Image style:
Crop type: Landscape (3:1)
Automatic crop provider: Automated crop

It seems that the automated crop is simply not applied for these images. When i set the crop manually everything works as expected. For images that are at least the specified soft limit in size, everything seems to work as well.
