So would you say that most keyboard and screen reader users would presumably know more than I did and would be able to successfully make a selection from my QuickLinks list, and it's not something I need to change? Would others concur?

I'm a keyboard (voice, which is effectively keyboard) user, and
I'm a web developer and I specialize in accessibility, and I DID
NOT KNOW THIS.

So I do not concur.
