Is this any better? <proposal> 4.2.2: For content that uses a technology that is not in the chosen baseline, all of the following are true: 1. If content violates either the general flash threshold or the red flash threshold, then users are warned in a way that they can avoid it. 2. If content can be entered using the keyboard, then the content can be exited using the keyboard. </proposal> Going through this little exercise made me aware of two other points regarding consistency of the success criteria phrasing. Some success criteria start off with a conditional "When..." other with "For..." while others use an "If x, then y" construction. Should the success criteria that are conditional use a single opening conjunction? Should the success criteria be use "the content" wherever possible, and avoid unnecessary references to "the user"?
