Curious why the default role for input[type=password] is "no corresponding role" and not textbox?

there is this: w3c/aria#935

it's not just a textbox, as there are other specific mappings to it. it wouldn't be accurate to say it cleanly maps to role=textbox.

So going to close this as this spec is accurate since there is no corresponding aria role.
