At 50 pc resolution the stellar mass-to-light ratio from dynamics is Kroupa-like (about 2.3) while spectral fitting is Salpeter-like (about 3.5), so the IMF tension persists over the same field of view.

SNELLS-HD I: a first look at the stellar properties of the massive strong-lens galaxy SNL-1 with 50 pc resolution
At 50 pc resolution the stellar mass-to-light ratio from dynamics is Kroupa-like (about 2.3) while spectral fitting is Salpeter-like (about 3.5), so the IMF tension persists over the same field of view.
