Pardon the naiveté, are there/what are the functional differences between `role="none"` and `role="generic"`?

Were `referenceTarget` (in a theoretical [Level 2](https://github.com/WICG/webcomponents/issues/1068)) expanded not just to include `referenceTargetMap` but also to pass string based attributes to the referenced element as well, would you expect the element's role to revert back to the default `role="generic"` when doing so? Would the element reverting to `role="generic"` (being the attribute was no longer associated to it) resolve this situation, or would additional defaults still need updating across the related specification here?
