I think this heading is a little confusing:
Use default ARIA semantics?

Does a NO here mean it doesn't use the default semantics? If so, what does that even mean? Perhaps you meant to call it "Use additional ARIA semantics" or something to that effect.

I might instead phrase it:
Should authors explicitly define ARIA attributes and/or role?

You might note *why* you said YES on form. I assume it's because of the ARIA landmark benefit. Ditto for other landmarks like nav/navigation, etc.

Looks good. Thanks for putting this together.
