If the Caldera collapses wouldn't this be by far the largest volcano ever witnessed?

I realize this is a small Caldera (1.9 miles in diameter) but man has never witnessed a super volcano going off. Meaning man has never witnessed and reported on a high viscosity caldera collapse.

Don’t forget about Katmai 1912; approximately 2/3 of Krakatoa or 2x Pinatubo, and a rhyolitic eruption.

Krakatau had a Caldera collapse right into the sea back in 1880-something. I would be surprised if this Volcano reached the explosive power of Krakatau.

I realize this is a small Caldera (1.9 miles in diameter) but man has never witnessed a super volcano going off.

Man was around ~70,000 years ago when Toba went off with a bang equivalent to 3,000 Mt. St. Helens erupting at once. Almost wiped everyone out. The earth temperature dropped 5C.
