2.4.3 focus order and additional content

Hi all,

We have been having a discussion about accordions where the user can add
additional sections. e.g. see image fig 1. below. Suppose that clicking the
add section button adds another section to the form directly under
shipping. These sections can also be taller in height than the screen.

One member of the team thinks that it would be contrary to 2.4.3 to keep
the focus on the button after clicking it because the user would have to
reverse tab back into the added content.

Another member of the team thinks that to jump focus all the way back to
the first field of the added section would be disorientating to the user.

Any suggestions would be most appreciated on whether either of the two
options meet or contravene the criterion 2.4.3 would be most appreciated.
