Sorry, also to add: of course different people will have different
personal preferences. You may well come across, say, a screen reader
user who will vehemently tell you that they don't care or want to hear
anything about directional cues, colours, visual aspects, and want "just
the facts / what's actually important"; and on the other end of the
spectrum, you'll get those SR users who will insist that it's absolutely
essential that every minute visual detail of an image is conveyed,
verging on a long description.
So it'll always be about finding an appropriate balance between the two
(even if you can't please every user)
