I appreciate folks asking the value of a potential new HTML element for checkbox as it seems so simple to build and make them accessible. But in doing research we found that out of 101 different checkboxes across the Interbrands top 100 brands and found 44% have an issue. * Invisible focus state: 16%
* Non-interactive label: 30%
* No computed name: 59%

Now a non-interactive label is not inherently wrong but it does produce and incoherent UX for users. But the other 2 are pretty much non-starters for a successful user experience in any scenario.
