When an SVG is nested inside of an <a> and this SVG owns role="img", aria-label="some label here", and tabindex="-1", it appears that the SVG is not included in calculating the accessible name for the control. Removal of the tabindex="-1" results in the SVG's label being calculated as part of the parent link's accessible name. Attributes such as aria-hidden="true" or CSS display:none; should have this effect, but should a negative tabindex on a naturally non-focusable element? This isn't a common approach and one would probably not recommend a negative tabindex on and SVG anyways, but feels like a name calculation bug (or an Apple-only opinion thing?). I'm not able to reference anywhere in the Accessible Name Calculation algorithm that the SVG should be taken out. Tnx! 1. Visit: https://cdpn.io/pen/debug/abVKxaX 2. Using Safari (or Chrome) with VoiceOver activated, traverse the links and listen for how they are announced. 3. Expected result: The first link should announce like the second. Tnx!

Rewording expected result: 3. Expected result: Both links should announce the nested SVG's label regardless of tabindex attribute presence.
