ARIA tends to expose multiple targets especially stuffs like aria-labelledby. I don't have statistics though. But the point is if AT needs only one targets then the server shouldn't spend a time to check whether there are other targets. In other words we can end up with single target but the server can do a lot of computation to figure out this.
