Regarding this specific querry: We have actually tested this.
We spoke to a few users and seeing the combination of an image, the title
and the wikidata description immensely helps visual learners. Not all users
learn by reading text. For example: This is especially important for
articles related to flora fauna.
Hope this helps
You'll note that I asked about "how **the image linked above** could
be considered helpful to a reader." (emphasis added; that image was
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_mobile_app_beta_bug_-_201…
) - indeed, you refer to my 'specific' query.
Are you really saying that you tested that image? (Or even anything like it?)
Or did you test using images where the cropping applied didn't result
in such inanity?
