I'm a big proponent of use of design systems for efficient remediation and maintenance, so I'm also aware of how a small oops bug can have wide repercussions. Let me know if you'd like to chat about use of your system to help

From your title my immediate thought was "cool, maybe this will move us a bit closer to making components (or the testing thereof) cover accessibility thoroughly by default". See, the idea with the semantic web, and the ARIA marku
