Hi Tomás,

Thank you for your comment!

Yes I understand this is quite confusing.

Basically Koha is set up without a lot of accessibility in mind and there is a
lot of inconsistency. Therefore, I sort of just chose to do things on a case by
case basis and sometimes it is unnecessary to have headings, and sometimes it
makes sense to have both captions and headings.

I will make a point to try and document these decisions more.

Thanks!
