I recently createad shared photo library and noticed that photos others shared in shared library are getting downloaded to my iPhone taking iPhone Space (apart from iCloud). This is consuming lot of space if you have turned on "download and keep originals".

Say my wife photos are 30GB on iPhone and on iCloud and we move everything to shared library then it will download that 30GB of photos to my iPhone once it is there in shared library and will take 30GB space on my device. I find this very risky if you don't have enough space on your iPhone and have turned on "download and keep originals".

Did anyone else notice this ?
