      It’s an accessibility issue. Screen readers for the blind can’t read text in images, and this one doesn’t have complete alt text. So it’s more polite to transcribe the text, either alongside the image, or instead of it.

      Making a flat demand without explanation isn’t a useful way of bringing the matter up, though, because people who aren’t already aware tend to assume it’s just a personal preference.
