aria-activedescendantstatearia-posinsetaria-ownsaria-selected=falseReason for Changes
There is a comment with justification for each of these things in the linked issue. I've verified that removing the active-descendant state and the aria-owns state does not change the screenreader output, and removing the posinset state improves the output (in my opinion, as discussed in the issue)
