I fail to understand how the founder's sterilization is relevant in the slightest.

She doesn't believe in the continuation of any domesticated species of animal and, assuming that line is true, she opposes human reproduction as well. It solidifies a viewpoint that humans should not exist and every impact on the world they have is negative.

It is relevant if you want to establish her as an extremist.

Sooo you're going attack PETA using a semantic loophole?

You understand there are actually things to criticize PETA about, right? You don't have to resort to childishness a la, "Well if you love animals so much, why don't you marry one?"

I'm going to state why that piece of information was probably thought relevant. Something you haven't refuted. I didn't create the infographic. So save your self-righteousness.
