How accessible is this approach to screen reader users and people who rely on keyboard interaction alone? Edit: A quick test reveals these tooltips are not accessible at all.
On one of the very first tooltips at the very top of the landing page (the download button), my Chrome v48.0.2564.97 browser renders a very thin gap between the triangle of the tooltip and the content rectangle. Not a great first impression...Is anyone else seeing this? I suspect it has something to do with pixel percentages.
Still worth fixing if possible, since many users browse at non-100% zoom.

Isn't there a tag for links similar to the description tag for images? If so, you could just enter the tooltip there as well.

Ditto. I was also zoomed at 150%, zooming in to 100% makes it go away. Still worth fixing if possible, since many users browse at non-100% zoom.
This sounds dubious. Do you have a source for this?

No. Well, you could use aria-describedby but that has to refer to a separate element. There’s no generic aria-description.

You could use aria-label potentially, but it has fairly scrict semantic connotations as a label for an input, I believe.

Given there are tens of millions of people on the Internet, even if a small amount like 0,01% did it, it would already be "many people".
I would however appreciate some analytics data on it to have a better idea.
