I find this comment interesting:

The other giveaway is that taxiways have yellow painted markings, runways have white. |

Interesting that they would have received a takeoff clearance if they had not called ready from the Runway holding point. An ATC eyeball or ground radar would have confirmed this before a takeoff clearance was given.

They often call ready well before the runway holding positions at Sydney, for example on the turn from Charlie to Bravo-10 when heading for 16L/34R.
