When using an editable combobox, like the browser URL bar, you'll typically navigate suggestions with the keyboard instead of the mouse. This is because your hands are already on the keyboard, making it easier to keep using it until the task is finished.

If this keyboard interaction fails, the UX is compromised. Likewise, if the contrast is low and it's hard to see which item is focused, the UX is broken. Try using your laptop outdoors during the day. As you can see, I didn't even need to mention "screen reader" to make this point.
