<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The objective of this Technique is to ensure that people with motor impairments who cannot carry out <a>dragging movements</a> are presented with an alternative <a>single pointer</a> interaction.</p>
<p>Some direct manipulation interfaces allow users to pick up targets and use dragging movements to move them to another position, for example, to change the position of an item in a priority list, or to move a task on a Kanban or planning board.</p>
<p>Such dragging movements are difficult or impossible to carry out for some users with motor disabilities. The alternative to dragging movements operates the underlying function by one or several <a>single pointer</a> activations. A single tap or click may reveal controls (arrows) to move a target in a stepwise fashion; open a drop-down menu where the drop position can be selected; or allow moving it to an ajacent postion by a swipe gesture.</p>

(Regarding the swipe gesture alternative, note that the swipe gesture alone would not be sufficient since Success Criterion 2.5.1 Pointer Gestures requires that functionality can be operated with a single pointer <strong>without</strong> a path-based gesture, unless a multipoint or path-based gesture is essential.)</p>

This may be overloading things a bit. maybe keep it shorter and say that any swipes also need to then be considered under 2.5.1, and leave it at that rather than explaining how it could/couldn't fail 2.5.1
