- The calendar grid uses an **`aria-activedescendant`** pattern for keyboard navigation. DOM focus remains on a wrapper element (`#calendarGrid`) while `aria-activedescendant` points to a proxy `<span>` that mirrors the active cell's ARIA attributes (`aria-label`, `aria-selected`, `aria-current`, `aria-disabled`). This approach keeps the screen reader in sync with the visually active cell without moving DOM focus on every keystroke, which prevents duplicate announcements during rapid arrow-key navigation.

48
+ The calendar tracks a single active cell across the rendered month(s). DOM focus stays on the `#calendarGrid` wrapper the entire time — arrow keys never move focus onto individual cell buttons. `setActiveCell()` imperatively marks the chosen cell (adds the `active` property on the cell host and an `.activeCell` class on its button) without a Lit re-render. Screen-reader awareness of the active cell is provided by an `aria-live` region rather than by `aria-activedescendant`, so the reader is never asked to shift its point of regard on every arrow keypress a debounce coalesces bursts (see [Screen Reader Announcements](#screenReaderAnnouncements)).

71
 
72
72
  - **VoiceOver behavior** — VoiceOver treats `polite` announcements as "wait until idle," and during active arrow-key traversal the screen reader is never idle. Polite announcements are silently dropped, leaving keyboard users with no feedback about which cell is now active. `assertive` is the only reliable way to communicate the newly focused date on macOS/iOS VoiceOver during navigation.
73
- - **Interruption mitigation** — A 150 ms debounce is applied in [`announceFocusDebounced`](../src/auro-calendar.js) so only the final cell after a burst of arrow keys is announced. Rapid navigation produces one announcement per pause, not one per keystroke, which minimizes the interruption cost of `assertive`.

  Consumers auditing against APG or WCAG 4.1.3 should treat this as an intentional, documented trade-off between spec-preferred politeness and reliable VoiceOver support.
