Well, last time I checked it was official policy on en to give more coverage to living people who we have free photos of than to living people whose only publicly available photos are press kit stuff. (Personally, I think that policy went too far, but I seem to be part of a tiny minority, and when you consider that I think our present policies for non-free content are generally inadequate and too permissive, I'm probably not even a
minority
I'm a statistical blip lying on the far side of the distribution.)

Official policy? Where? That does seem kind of nonsense. One should look at the article/topic to decide to delete the article or not. Not deciding on the basis that it has pretty picture attached to it. The reverse is also true of course, pointless to delete an article on the basis it has no image.
I was referring to the policy of refusing to accept non-free images of living people solely for the purpose of illustrating their physical appearance.
