This adage has been "the first rule of ARIA" since the beginning.

There are a few ARIA "widgets" that have no HTML equivalent, such as Tabs or a spreadsheet-like Grid. Those are heavily documented so you can basically copy and paste whenever you need them.

Avoiding sprinkling ARIA on already-semantic HTML, because this can lead to confusing or inconsistent behaviors for the end user.

The joy of US "at-will" employment is that every company's Code of Conduct reserves the right to "separate" you for undermining mission alignment. The whole system is toxic.

What if we extended this idea beyond one dataset to all discrete news events and entities: people, organizations, places.

Just like here you could get a timeline of key events, a graph of connected entities, links to original documents.

Newsrooms might already do this internally idk.

This code might work as a foundation. I love that it's RDF.

> building a more AI friendly DOM

You might consider the Accessibility Tree and its semantics. Plain divs are basically filtered out so you're left with interactive objects and some structural/layout cues.

This is a cool idea! At first I thought it was that they give you notes about what happened, and you have to process the information real-time and suggest practical improvements.
