What is an element, actually?
An element, or at least an element that is considered to be added to this audit, is one that:
- provides important information to the user
- is used as it is by any user that doesn't add custom code to it
- has its general look the same for any user that doesn't add custom code to it
- enables an action to the user
- has a certain shape or structure
- is not a simple text or link
