 ## Expectation
 
-None of the target elements are [focusable][], nor do they have [descendants](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-tree-descendant) in the [flat tree](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-scoping/#flat-tree) that are [focusable][].
+None of the target elements has an [inclusive descendant][] in the [flat tree][] that are [focusable][] and part of the [sequential focus navigation][].
 
 ## Assumptions
 
-Interacting with the page does not result in changing the `aria-hidden` [attribute value][] of target elements. An example of such a situation would be when closing a modal dialog makes previously hidden and not [focusable][] elements become [focusable][].

 By adding `aria-hidden="true"` to an element, content authors ensure that assistive technologies will ignore the element. This can be used to hide parts of a web page that are [pure decoration](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#dfn-pure-decoration), such as icon fonts - that are not meant to be read by assistive technologies.
 
-A [focusable][] element with `aria-hidden="true"` is ignored as part of the reading order, but still part of the focus order, making its state of [visible](#visible) or hidden unclear.
+An element with an `aria-hidden` attribute set to `true` that is also part of the [sequential focus navigation][] may cause confusion for users of assistive technologies because the element can be reached via [sequential focus navigation][], but it should be hidden and not [included in the accessibility tree][].
 
 The 1 second time span introduced in the exception of the definition of [focusable][] is an arbitrary limit which is not included in WCAG. Given that scripts can manage the focus state of elements, testing the focused state of an element consistently would be impractical without a time limit.
