Research direction

Start by reproducing the Timeline Navigation behavior with NVDA and inspecting the reported .tl-headline h2 markup and role="application" context. The issue mentions no source files or tests; done means the timeline headings are exposed to NVDA while retaining the existing VoiceOver behavior.
