Description

The motivation for this is that different browsers might show fuzziness in different ways, some with low maxDifference but high totalPixels (0-50, 0-400), some being the opposite (0-100, 0-50).

When that is the case, multiple fuzzy annotations can be useful, to avoid ending up in the situation where you have to use the maximum in all browsers (0-100, 0-400), which isn't super ideal.
