Disable resizing of featured image in GP 1.5

Hi,
today I updated to GP 1.5 which has new resizer for archive thumbnails (which is great) but also for posts featured image. Problem is, that all featured images I upload in same exact size. New resizer creates another file for example: "image-758x426.jpg" but my original "image.jpg" is already 758x426px, there is no point to duplicate that file.
Is there any option how to disable that? I tried put 0 in customizer and leave it blank, but is seems still creating some additional files.
Images shouldn't be touched by the resizer as long as the values are empty in Customize > Layout > Blog > Featured Images.
Do the single post featured image options have any values?
It's what I thought but field has placeholder "Automatic" and I was still seeing another sources in html. I tested it all over again and I found that only if image is larger there is generated smaller version in "srcset".
It confused me. I found that srcset resized images are handled by WordPress itself (right?), so it's not GP issue.
Thank you for help.
That's correct - srcset was introduced in WP 4.3 (I believe). It's a good thing, as it makes your images more responsive/increase performance :)
