SVG Import image X and Y positions are multiplied by 2
If you open this SVG in Chrome, FF, Inkscape, etc, the rectangle and the 120.png image should be stacked on top of each other. However, in Illustrator CC (As of 09-23-2020) the image appears at 240x240 for the X/Y position instead of the defined 120x120. Appears to be this way only with the image tag. If you were to do a transformation matrix, it fixes the problem but still it should be imported properly into Illustrator.

Uploads appear to be broken on this site too (create a bug for that while you're at it).
An example SVG is as follows. Replacing the xlink:href tag with any valid PNG/JPG will produce the bug.
