Core Mandate

Tooltips must convey supplementary information to all users regardless of input method. A tooltip unreachable by keyboard is an accessibility barrier.

Tooltips are non-interactive supplementary labels only. If the content is essential, or contains links/buttons, use persistent text or a popover instead.
