Checks that elements with role=‘text’ have no focusable descendants

Solution

Elements with role=‘text’ tell screen readers to treat the content as a single text string. If focusable elements (links, buttons, inputs) are nested inside, screen reader users cannot interact with them properly. Remove role=‘text’ from the parent, or restructure so focusable elements are outside the role=‘text’ container.
