I can't speak to all the different attachment ways, because that isn't my bailiwick. I'm the deliverer of a message composed from three moderators conversations regarding all the attachments, Kb's, MG's, Gigs, Terrabytes, or what have you. I know nothing about the difference between a Google Drive and linking from anywhere else.
I do read all the way through posts, and do understand what you were talking about "temporarily" storing then deleting. I have no idea how that plays into the issues you're having. I understand if you hook up an external link, and that link later disappears, the photo is gone from one's thread. I choose my external links wisely because of that.
My sole purpose in responding was to tell you the whys and options based on moderator consensus. So your other comments and advice will need to come from somewhere else. .
