I have made updates to hopefully resolve the feedback you had!

I'm still not super happy with the inclusion in the accessibility tree part 😅
From the TF discussion, I think I understand that TF reached the consensus that an inaccessible transcript is not always a 1.2.1 failure.
If this is indeed the case, then yes, we need to remove it (and the corresponding Failed Example). But in this case I'd like us to have a Passed example with an accessible transcript that is not failing 1.2.1. This will serve as documentation of this decision and essentially say: "no, inclusion in the accessibility tree is not required, look at this". (and if people disagree with this decision in the future, we'll have the example to foster concrete discussions instead of doing archaeology in Github history.
If I'm reading that wrong and that the issue with inaccessible transcripts is that they fail both 1.2.1 and 1.3.1, then I think that a better solution would be to add 1.3.1 as a related secondary requirement; this is similar to the secondary requirement to 1.1.1 for "link have accessible name" (due to area elements)
Amended the updated of unmuted as the term is not recognised so used "not mute" instead.

I couldn't add this in my review comments - Like the change you made in 2eb176, please change this failed example 4 to passed example 3 in ee13b5. Failed Example 4This <html lang="en">
<video controls>
<source src="/test-assets/rabbit-video/silent.mp4" type="video/mp4"></source>
<source src="/test-assets/rabbit-video/silent.webm" type="video/webm"></source>
</video>
<p aria-hidden="true">The above video shows a giant fat rabbit climbing out of a hole in the ground.
He stretches, yawns, and then starts walking.
Then he stops to scratch his bottom.</p>

Since autoplay here is referring to the HTML attribute I don't think it needs to link to the definition.

| ## Accessibility Support | ||

| There are no accessibility support issues known. | ||

| ## Background | ||

|

| Some major browsers do not automatically play the 'video' unless it is muted, which makes the rule inapplicable in these browsers. The rule still applies to browsers that [autoplay][] an audible 'video'. |

This one should link to the autoplay definition, but since it is being used in the Background section, the definition doesn't need to be objective.
