Ngl, if someone's that committed to having all their links in a button wall, it's relatively easy to style a link as a button with CSS, and you don't even have to go and add alt-text for it because screen readers (should) read the text displayed in the button. For linking with site buttons, I use the "alt=" attribute to identify them as "[site name's] Site Button" for screen readers.
Unfortunately, the flaw of accessibility is its reliance on the individual webmasters to care enough to make their sites as accessible as possible. I think it's important and do my best to make my site as accessible as possible within the scope of my abilities, even if it's a right pain to recode things as I discover new accessibility tricks. But at the same time, having alt-text for my decorations helps me keep track of them tbh 😅
