Widgets that are wrapped in AbsorbPointer or IgnorePointer do not receive tap events.
Tapping on the position where the widget is located always works. But when spot doesn't reach the expected widgets during hit testing, it will search for AbsorbPointer or IgnorePointer widgets in the tree that might prevent the hit test from reaching the expected widget.
The widget creation location in code is logged (if available) or the breadcrumb.
Errors look like this:
