Enabled fieldsets contribute a native disabled state.

ROOT CAUSE

The enabled fieldset decision in the disabled inheritance adapter violates its declared contract.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Apply the exact contract at the enabled fieldset decision: if row[4] and row[2] and

Unsuccessful approach: The local repair substitutes if row[4] and row[2] is not None and but still mishandles the regression fixtures.

Case contract

Input preorder nodes [id,parent,native_disabled,aria_disabled,fieldset,first_legend] and queried ID. Native disabled inherits from disabled fieldsets except descendants of their first_legend; nested disabled fieldsets remain independently effective. aria_disabled is tri-state None/True/False and nearest explicit ancestor value wins, but never cancels native disabled. Return [native_effective,aria_effective,effective] for queried node, or None when missing. An explicit native-disabled node remains disabled even when inside an exempt legend. first_legend ID belongs to fieldset; all parent links exist or None.

Why this case matters

Offline accessibility bridge model with explicit policy; useful for testing semantic API adapters independently of browser implementations.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite adapter contract, not a claim of platform accessibility or ARIA conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
