They don't really have enough bits here for asymmetric crypto.
How many bits are they able to reliably recover from the screenshot, especially if they want to survive simple downsampling? I would guess not more than 500, probably less than that given the patterns we're seeing.
You can't generate a ciphertext smaller than your key size. And 500 bits is really not enough to do typical asymmetric crypto safely.
