Remembering your email, address, and name are not cognitive tests. This is suggested by ...

The common identifiers name, e-mail, and phone number are not considered cognitive function tests as they are personal to the user and consistent across websites;

There would be a requirement from 1.3.5: Identify Input Purpose<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FWAI%2FWCAG21%2FUnderstanding%2Fidentify-input-purpose.html&data=04%7C01%7Cjpascalides%40ets.org%7Cb6e10f24bbf040bbf02d08d931c68c21%7C0ba6e9b760b34fae92f37e6ddd9e9b65%7C0%7C0%7C637595551088633915%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=FSTfQU2qyVAc88iZJV4Pe3aoSof5jUNKSqxEwe9cqp8%3D&reserved=0> to have autocomplete......



On the call today  we wanted to respond as follows:

COGA: Remembering your email, address, and name are tests of  cognitive ability.  In fact they are just the type of test in a MCI mini mental test. They may be allowed for authentication as they can be copy pasted from a notepad , or filled in automatically by autocomplete.



Any objections?
