Comment (by dd32):

 Does it need to be specifically `<meta name="description" content="..."
 />` or can `<meta property="description" content="..." />`?

 If it can be `property=` then that's easy, as I can use Jetpacks
 functionality for it, however I note that [https://smallseotools.com/meta-
 tags-analyzer/ some tools] don't seem to detect `property="description"`
 even though that works for opengraph. I suspect the answer is that it
 needs to be `name="description"` but wanted to verify before I put in work
 to make it work like that.
