Hi Michael

The issue for an AT user would be a VA user who did not know how to reference the control by name as they wouldn't know how to refer to it.

There are some WCAG issues which impact all users but are more problematic for certain users. For example - headings and labels being non-descriptive. So, the fact it impacts all users doesn't necessarily mean it isn't an accessibility issue?

Thanks

Sarah
