Comment (by juliemoynat):

 I agree with Joe.

 Regarding the whole discussion I still think removing the `aria-
 hidden="true"` attributes is the better solution. I think it's more
 important to be sure that no one will miss any information than having too
 much. The comment form is quite small and once people are used to this
 form, they can easily interrupt the screen reader.
