> Artifacting the labels would be mean that users attempting to understand the form structure without entering Forms mode would be unable to access the visible field label, which seems like a tagging failure to me.

In my experience the tooltips and form fields are placed in the virtual cursor/browse mode even if the label text is made an artifact -- so users are still able to arrow to the form fields and don't hear duplicate labels.
