Yeah that Wordle accessibility thing was exhausting for me. It's such a great example of access being Too Much. The colors are not important! Take a step back and look at what they convey.
But also I think it's about what the player wants to see versus what an observer wants to see. If I'm going to see a bunch of these on social media, I'd be content with knowing how many tries it took or even just whether my friend won at all -- but I don't play Wordle; it might be different if I did. I know a friend who plays "with" her mom, they text each other their emoji results every day and in that kind of situation it might make sense for an accessible version to get into the granular details of which letters were in any way correct in which line.
Again, I think it makes sense to have a digest version and a more verbose version.
