Instead, I propose removing the note from 1.6:
When replacing ASCII art with an image, specify a text

and make making a general statement in the rationale for the guideline

(more than a sentence or two), shorten the text equivalent
and add a description as well. See also Guideline 2.

The section on brief descriptions has been removed.

Yes, it has been fixed.
