He’s right, the ease of use makes it very dangerous. I often find teams who don’t understand users, screen readers, live regions, etc. feel *everything* needs to be a live region. Current quirky behavior sometimes helps hold back the flood.
But `ariaNotify()` risks making a cacophony of terrible experiences for users if authors continue to be so cavalier.
So yes, let’s all be cool about this.
Be. Cool.
