The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Disability Access APIs' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Jamie is this an NVDA or Firefox bug?

The test case sets .textContent three times, each 100 ms apart. Yes, the content is the same, but it still gets reset, which means new text nodes are created each time. If you don't want a screen reader to report this multiple times, you shouldn't set it multiple times. If you must set it multiple times for some reason, set aria-atomic="true" and aria-busy="true", then remove aria-busy for the final update.
