Thank you for your answer.
Please, ignore my argument.
I will ask, again, about the adoption of Metalink, and to deprecate
similar XEP extensions in favour of Metalink.
Kind reagrds,

Should we,
perhaps, consider Metalink (RFC 5854) instead of
OpenGraph, and any other similar solution which be specific to XMPP,
for such task?
While I expect OpenGraph to be a popular vocabulary here because it
is the biggest standard for link metadata, we are not restricted to
that by the XEP.
TIL metalink, it looks basically identical to the jingle file element
(and the sfs file element). Sad that we now have three of these
defined instead of collaborating. However it's not really related to
the main link metadata use case.
