I think what you are suggesting is kind of an automatic version of the manual work-around suggested here: https://wyday.com/forum/t/954/less-strict-file-overwrites/
I don't know if that approach would work in your case though. You'd need to download less than 64MB but more than 12MB. However, the drawback is you can only specify the option project-wide, not for specific versions or even files.
