After testing, this fix isn't changing NVDA's behavior, but that's okay. I tested NVDA on a basic input form on MDN's docs pages for a benchmark, and found the "two-step" process to be native behavior.

If a user is moving through the page using arrow keys, NVDA doesn't automatically toggle to Focus made and let users enter text into an input. They must press Enter to kick the screen reader into Focus mode to type into the input. Pressing ESC toggles the screen reader back to Browser mode at this point.

Your implementation is following native behavior, so I don't see a need to make a change from what's being done here.

Gah - if it's not affecting NVDA or doing anything, I should remove the line in that case. Will push up a reversion in the main feature branch

This is the nature of screen reader testing. Try, fix, revert, try again. :)
