Braille labels do not match their text

aria-braille-equivalent

A braille-specific label is present without the matching normal label it is supposed to abbreviate.

Who this affects

Braille display users, who get an abbreviation with nothing to relate it to.

Fix it in WordPress

Rare in WordPress. If it appears, it comes from hand-written markup or an accessibility overlay.

What the fix is, technically

Always pair a braille label with an ordinary accessible name that means the same thing.
