Incredible visual. It's says a lot very simply, and is absolutely part of the classic "show don't tell" Hollywood vibe of the last 15 or so years.
However, if this was a scene from an earlier season... we would still get this visual, but before it is shown we would have seen Drogon landing, Dany disembarking and then stumbling slightly due to being mounted for so long, Drogon turning in concern and then looking around the courtyard to protect his mother, Dany showing the physical and psychological effects of what just happened in King's Landing, squaring herself to make the walk...
and then the scene we did see.
The small scenes that had later payoff in character development were missing. I think that we missed them.

I don’t know. There were a lot of nice callbacks
Here is a small scene that pays off in the striking visual. Lady Olenna giving Dany advice
