i swear to god i can't find this by searching and it's driving me up the fucking wall

i'm trying to build an image modal using the <dialog> element

for some reason, the dialog element itself is focusable. i did not do this. i did not put tabindex on it. there is no interactivity on the dialog element itself. why the fuck is it focusable. i just want the close button to be focusable for goodness sake (and it is, and it's autofocused, that's nice at least, but why in the fresh hell can i tab back to the whole fucking dialog element when *i can't interact with it*??????)
