Hi and welcome to WordPress Core Trac!

I'll close this.

  1. The Accessibility team has removed many title attributes from Core because they are not very helpful. See #24766.
  2. Images on the About page have been ​considered decorative and therefore do not need alternative text. See ticket:51415#comment:24. If an image can have more information about it, I would prefer to add that as visible text (and it is rather late to change content for the 6.4 release).
Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
