No, I never post pictures with the intention to inspire.
The OP, as you know, was looking for examples of how to wear braces over a shirt while jacketless. That's a very niche look, and one that generally pigeonholes someone into the above styles. In that sense, they're certainly illustrative.
I think you explicitly said that these looks can work:
Seconded. Also, you might consider adding side adjusters to your summer trousers, as long as your waist allows for them. From your post I'm assuming a larger upper body and a more narrow waist?
Some examples of things that can work:

Presumably, you are also into these looks since you own braided leather suspenders
I also have a pair made from braided leather. For some reason it strikes me as a warm weather thing, so my braided belt/braces are always worn in the spring/summer.
I would not wear a vest over a sport coat, personally. But Jason's outfit strikes me as a lot less odd than people who wear suspenders as a style accessory.
