Every panel was visible until Alpine booted — four role="tabpanel" regions at once for a screen reader, and aria-controls pointing at ids that did not exist yet. The panel now carries its id, its aria-labelledby and, unless it is the chosen one, display:none from the server. A slot renders before the component around it, so the panel reads <x-tabs>'s attributes off the component stack and repeats its id and initial-tab lines; both files say so. Plan: docs/plans/material-3-alignment.md, step 14 (navigation N-05).
