markup decorative hr tags as decorative #4212

Open StephDriver opened 1 month ago

<hr> has been used for visual formatting, but it is focusable and read as 'separator, dimmed' which is confusing.

update the markup so that these are not focusable and are not described by screen readers.

examples:

The almost invisible pale line under 'Research Article' is an <hr>.

I think we will need to assess the use of hr tags. They are legitimately separators used the breakup content so no technically “decorative”.
