Comment (by afercia):

 Discussed a bit in
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/accessibility/p1453140352002638 the
 accessibility team chat a while ago] and agreed to remove some semantics.
 While it may seem counterintuitive, in limited cases it's better to remove
 improper semantics (this is not a tabular data table) and noise for screen
 reader users and simplify all the things.
 Worth noting also this screen will probably change soon as part of the
 Shiny Updates v2 effort currently under development on GitHub, see
