Problem description https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/676

When using VO, once 100 electrons are on the body, there is no indication that it is the maximum amount or that John is fully charged.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open the sim and tab into it
  2. Turn on VO
  3. Tab to the arm and use the arrow key to move John's hand away from the door knob.
  4. Shift + Tab to the foot and move it back and forth using the arrow keys until 100 electrons are reached.

Visuals https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cfsz_cwn29vaGHDOK5mFfRrUH45r6p9C/view?usp=sharing Even when I pause for longer after the utterance "there are 100 electrons on body" there is no statement about John being fully charged.

I think this is just a difference between the original quantitative-based interactive description design and the purely Qualitative Voicing design.

As a side note, we do plan on re-visiting the Interactive Description Design for John Travoltage, see #378 Unfortunately, we were not able to do that for this first Voicing release.

We will be considering this for future releases.

Thanks @terracoda, sounds good.
