Accessibility #

It exposes tablist, tab, tabpanel and region semantics, with aria-label, aria-orientation, aria-selected, aria-controls, aria-labelledby and aria-hidden kept in step with state.

Motion #

Transitions use the shared duration and easing tokens. Under prefers-reduced-motion those tokens collapse to instant and travel distances go to zero, so state changes still happen without movement.
