Comment (by joedolson):

 In [changeset:"60885" 60885]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="60885"
 General: A11y: Remove obsolete `speak` and `aural` CSS.

 Remove instances of `speak: never` and `@media aural`, which are
 deprecated and/or non-standard CSS. These never had any broad browser
 support, but generated content alternatives do. See #40428.

 Props krokodok, audrasjb, joedolson.
 Fixes #63603.
 }}}
