Thanks for your patience on this @sprinklehappiness! Could you please amend the PR to focus on just the 2 too-long texts? It looks like a third text was changed, but it was not too long.

For the other two, I think it would be better if the shortened version did not have less information. I'll add comments to each individually, but the following resources may be useful:

From the above, if the image contains important information and the information is already present in surrounding text, you could use something like "as described above" to make sure the removed information is still clearly available.
