- Add role=text on the actual number of words. This reduces the changes of Voiceover (especially on MacOS) garbling the announcement.
- Programmatically associate the counter with the text field. This will allow screen reader users to hear this information when they focus in the field (either right away or by asking for more details, depending on their screen reader settings). This is to support WCAG success criterion 1.3.1 Info & Relationships, using advisory technique ARIA1
This should prevent VoiceOver announcing just "remaining" (VoiceOver has a well-known issue where it does not announce the entire element when there are inline tags). There should be no effect on other screen readers.
…is a conflict with the auto-generated ID). Use it to programmatically associate counter with textarea.
…avoid random-sounding announcements on ajax submissions (observed in Drupal 9).

My only concern with setting it this way is if there are multiple instances on a page, with an empty ID, then this would create duplicate IDs. Perhaps something like jQuery UIs uniqueId function behavior could be duplicated here instead: https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/blob/1be45388176080418aef84f3c98fda2c10fcdc42/ui/unique-id.js#L43
