I've come to the conclusion that tooltips are presentational.
* They're not suitable for accessible description, control hints should be provided in static text.
* They're not appropriate for accessible label, this would fail one or more SCs if the control is not otherwise labelled.
The only useful purpose of tooltips is for sighted users, to provide explanatory text for graphical controls, so its text would always be the same as `aria-label`.
