Twitter's handling of emojis

I just saw this in a tweet:

<img class="twitter-emoji" src="https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v1/72x72/1f61a.png" draggable="false" alt="😚" title="Kissing face with closed eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Kissing face with closed eyes">

I couldn't help thinking:

1. Yay, Twitter gives a lot of consideration to Accessibility and this is good.
2. Hey, this alt means nothing to the people who may need it
