'Why aiohttp "unpacks" file?

app.router.add_static(
    '/' + config['prefix'] + '/',
    config['path'],
    show_index=True
)

File on server:

/path/name.ext.gz 53kB

Downloaded with browser and with aiohttp client:

name.ext.gz 270k

If i download file named filename.ext.gz from aiohttp server it adds Content-Encoding: gzip header so file saved unpacked with .gz extension.

< HTTP/1.1 200 OK
< Content-Type: application/octet-stream
< Content-Encoding: gzip

< Server: Python/3.10 aiohttp/3.8.1
