I think the idea is that this might get upvoted a lot and turns out to be the first comment under this post.

Also it’s copy-pastable for OP.

My ideal hope is that by modelling good behaviour, I can encourage more OPs to provide transcriptions themselves in the body or the alt-text field.

If OPs take my transcriptions and edit it into the body, that's pretty good too. Especially if more people take up the work so transcriptions get posted on posts that I don't do myself.

The algorithm is far too fickle for me to have even considered my comment getting upvoted to the top. Good if it happens I guess, but not in my consideration.
