My component library broke because of one missing aria-label

Last Tuesday I spent 5 hours debugging a button component that was failing accessibility tests. Turned out the design token for the aria-label got dropped in a sprint merge and nobody caught it until QA flagged it. Has anyone else had a tiny spec detail wreck an entire component?

Dude that is brutal. 5 hours for one missing label is the kind of thing that makes you wanna flip a desk. Totally feel your pain on that one.

Oh man, 5 hours is rough but honestly it's not really the aria-label's fault though. The real problem is the merge process letting a design token slip through without anyone noticing.
