    “Inventing a new button with a div because there’s one or two easily fixable quirks with a native button is like burning your house down because the windows need a clean. It’s a very drastic, unnecessary approach when in reality, all you needed was some soapy water and a sponge.“

      Last point on this one: If you’re gonna go against the grain of using semantics as an #a11y base point, you’d better test with proper AT. This isn’t just a quick VoiceOver job either. There’s a shit load of nuance with older AT, especially. But the JS world knows that, right?
