Also people using a switch or other keyboard-like device, the order would appear to skip the ad and then come back to it. If each item had a focusable element, I’d probably fail that under 2.4.3 Focus Order.

It is another useful example of why I think the content & focus-order should follow the flexbox (and grid) order [1], but unfortunately the browsers seem to be going the other way.
