The first is a smaller resolution PNG version of the pic, the second is a larger JPG, and looks to be less crisp.

Being a bonehead, I was fixating on the dpi, and did not clue in to the file size difference before flagging the former.

In a case like this, should the smaller yet better quality image stay?

Pngs are accepted over jpgs, if I recall correctly, and there have been times when I've seen the image shrink because it's a higher quality, thus meaning less space to show more, but that may have been an accidental file type change when comparing.

However, I don't know if a higher quality jpg is acccepted over a lower quality png, that'd otherwise look the same. Or vice versa.

Larger resolution and smaller filesize, no little blurs that are the result of blowing an image up, we want that PNG over the JPG.

The original image at the source is a png, the same size as the jpg version. Looks like the uploader somehow converted to a jpg before uploading it. I know iPhones do that.
