Just use a button

> This element does not announce itself as an interactive element to screen reader users

Are you sure? Screen readers should be able to detect a div with a onclick as interactable, no? And if they can’t, that seems like an exceedingly simple fix. I’d be shocked if they can’t already detect onclick.

A click handler can be doing a lot of things that aren't much like a button, like letting you close a modal if you click outside of it, capturing mouse events for a game, or passively recording events for analytics. All that a click handler tells you is that there's some code that sometimes cares about some clicks somewhere inside that element.
