Installer reinstall option displays incorrect stick capacity

In Tails Installer, “Target USB stick” displays the capacity of the USB stick. However, the “Reinstall (delete all data)” option displays the size of the Tails partition, rather than the capacity of the USB stick. The inconsistency might suggest to the user that Tails Installer is detecting another USB stick or that there is some kind of error.
