+            <codeph>row</codeph> or <codeph>col</codeph> were not rendered as header cells (<xmlelement
+            >th</xmlelement>) in HTML5 output, and the <xmlatt>scope</xmlatt> value itself was not carried through to
+            the generated markup. The table templates have been updated to promote these entries to header cells and
+            preserve the <xmlatt>scope</xmlatt> value, improving accessibility for complex tables that rely on explicit
+            header associations.
