Major hosts already support image links, and it'd be a good way to stick it to reddit et al. Especially if it looks like a captcha text. Or is it a matter of 'aint nobody got time for that'...?

Because that would greatly harm accessibility for the visually impaired.

And if you wanted to adhere to accessibility guidelines for the conversational images, you'd need to add alt text to them. But then the ML models can train on that, so you're back to square one.

You'd still have to post (alt)text for accessibility reasons
OCR exists
