They don't have to go directly to a miner. They can run their own node that will hold the tx in their mempool. If you're trying to go to a miner to get your tx included in a block for any other reason than paying the most then you'll always have to go to a miner. If someone wants to inscribe a 4mb jpeg they can do it right now without going directly to a miner by paying 3 sats per vbyte. Paying a high fee IS going to the miner. The willingness to pay the fee is the economic signal to the miner. There is no need to reach out directly.
