💡 What: Replaced .onTapGesture with a semantic Button featuring a .plain button style in ChordRow and SequenceRow.

🎯 Why: Attaching .onTapGesture to HStack views makes those interactive elements inaccessible to VoiceOver screen readers and keyboard navigation (like Tab keys). Wrapping them in a native Button automatically handles focus and accessibility behaviors correctly.

📸 Before/After: Not highly visual, but keyboard and VoiceOver focus will now successfully highlight the entire list row properly.

♿ Accessibility: Ensures that keyboard users and screen reader users can independently navigate and activate interactive sequence/chord rows without relying on a pointer device.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Avoid exposing two accessible edit controls for each row.

The new row Button and the sibling pencil Button both invoke onEdit. VoiceOver and keyboard users now encounter two edit controls for each ChordRow and SequenceRow. Keep one accessible edit control, or remove the pencil button from the accessibility and keyboard order.

Also applies to: 218-218
