I disagree, this is clearly not the best guide.

There's a huge section on images and not even an external link to how to do alt-text, let alone mentioning the "friction" you will, rightly, encounter by posting lots of images without alt-text.

The Mastodon desktop client will do the bulk, if not all the alt-text for you.

"Post images like a pro" indeed.

It seems to me it explains how to do alt-text pretty well in this section no? https://controlaltdelete.technology/articles/the-mastodons-guide-to-the-fediverse.html#9-3-alt-text

And also it explains that people might not boost your posts if they have no alt-text here: https://controlaltdelete.technology/articles/the-mastodons-guide-to-the-fediverse.html#9-5-pictures

Overall I think it strikes the right balance, being quite complete but not overwhelming!

Ah yes, the technical instruction manual.

It appears at first glance to be very information complete which makes it a great guide to Mastodon for computer programmers who, of course, are the only people on Mastodon.

I mean I, personally, like what I've seen and would find it useful. I don't know anyone socially that I could show it too who would also find it useful.
