I think we already show the screenshot specified there, if one exists?
In any case, part of the test is that we can take a screenshot, and I am checking those for any obvious issues (like just a black or white window).
This test must still be passed, even though we then use the AppStream screenshot when putting together the HTML.
Historically, most applications in Linux have an "Internet addiction" and often instead of a screenshot giving the user an idea of the application's appearance and functions, the user sees a "No Internet connection" window
Yes. Hence if the AppStream metadata includes a screenshot, we use that one.
But if the application just shows a black or white window, I consider that a failed test.
I think the best UX is to use the screenshot specified in appdata.metainfo. I even wrote a small parser (I managed to get the right result, but I'm sure it won't always be like this)

Not all include appdata.xml or metainfo.xml in your AppImage
