Redundant announcements add to cognitive load, making it more challenging for screen reader users to determine if multiple actions have taken place. This disrupts the expectation for concise and meaningful feedback.

Expected Behavior
Screen reader should announce the updated row and column information only once per resize action.
Actual Behavior
When the user resizes rows or columns in the “Launch” grid, the screen reader announces the updated row and column information twice for a single resize action. This results in redundant feedback and creates confusion for screen reader users.
Example: If we change the size 118 then screen reader announce '118-118' twice.
