This report isn't actionable. Your examples aren't programmatically distinguishable from the anti-pattern. You're saying the span in this example shouldn't be announced as "clickable" even though this is a common problematic case:

<div onclick="return delegate(event);">
  <h2>Heading <span>x</span></h2>
  <p>Text</p>
  <button>press</button>
</div>

Our first responsibility is to our users, and the slight increase in verbosity (e.g. "clickable") when there is some ambiguous code results in a much better experience than the change you're asking for, which would make many real clickable elements undiscoverable and/or imperceivable.
