Accessibility matters; the implementation differs
Power BI includes built-in support for keyboard navigation, screen readers, high contrast, focus mode and accessible data views. Report authors still configure alt text, tab order, labels and themes.

Green = good Red = bad
Prefer explicit direction and meaning, with semantic color as reinforcement:
