Summary of Issue: Antiquated information - contradicts current best practices
Comment (Including rationale for any proposed change):
The current recommended techniques for tabindex contradict current best practices of avoiding positive tabindex values.

https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20161007/H4#H4-resources

Have actually had clients challenge recommendations to avoid positive tabindex values because this technique (H4 Creating logical tab order...) still exists.

Proposed Change:
Recommend retiring this technique
