 really just a side-effect of other things that are wrong. The main issue
 here is that if the submenu is going to default to open, there shouldn't
 be a button with `aria-expanded` or any state manipulation.

 setting, and I think that if that moves forward, the focus behavior should
 be closely examined as part of that feature addition.


 Thank you for helping me report it to the correct team.

 +1 for the feature where the submenus can open on click in the mobile
 overlay, but just having that button removed when the menu can't actually
 be opened or closed in that state would be perfect.
