We discussed it in the context of 3.2.3 Consistent Navigation. I don't 
believe that the technique is relevant to that SC? Does it fall under 
any other current WCAG 2 SC?
While the technique itself is valid, this feels more like a general good 
practice (for all users), possibly something that can be referenced by LVTF?
