The accessibilityFrame is, by default, the frame of the accessible element. But you can change it. For example, you could expand it, so the interaction area is larger and easier to interact with, and so the user finds less "dead space" in the app.

Too much data can overwhelm users. Very little is an incomplete experience. It is hard to find a balance on verbosity and the users may have different preferences. To help with this issue, the AXCustomContent APIs let you mark data as optional.

It is not just about applying accessibility APIs, but about caring, and thinking of features that can make your app more accessible and inclusive to everyone. Twitter's alt-text feature is a great example. Thanks, @TwitterA11y! You'll be missed.
