Only problem being is that I did no such thing.
As you can see ( top middle right of frame) the light is green as I move off. It changed literally as I put my foot down to stop alongside the car in the box.

Car is stopped on the white line
You are now in front of the car, but at least now you are looking around.

I had to position with my rear wheel just inside the box ( behind the line ) because I needed the ( illegally) positioned driver to see I was there. My rear wheel was still behind the line.

It annoys the feck out of me when drivers stop in the ASL... especially when I'm in the passenger seat!

It's actually more damning than that! At around 10s you can actually see RR looking back and the car's grill is in shot, as well as possibly the corner of the ASL (it would be much clearer if I wasn't squinting at my smartphone screen). I find it hard to make that image align with the claim that rear wheel was on or behind the ASL line, not that this remotely makes matters any more legal.
If it was so important for my safety to be visible to a driver I would have stopped at the rear corner of the front vehicle and made sure that the 2nd vehicle driver was aware of my presence.

I find it's usually cyclists. Nobbers.

Ahhh well; that's ok then! I hope lorry drivers don't start to use the same logic when it comes to stopping at stop lines.

Christ almighty, this is supposed to be a cycle site
certain posters ( the same ones) are clearly not cyclists.

Very few drivers know what the ASL is anyway, so it's a bit of a non-story. Not worth going to the waste of time editing a video and posting it. Can we have something more exciting, like you blasting down a hill at 50-60mph on your new steed ?
