"Field label is not visible"
3.3.2 Labels or Instructions
Description of this issue:
The input field does not have a visible label indicating the purpose of the input field.
How to fix it:
A visible label helps with predictability for all types of users.

Our placeholder text provides the necessary context and "predictability" for users. I don't think we need a visible label beyond that.

Next step: Investigate to see if a visible label is really necessary or if placeholder text meets the criteria for this guideline: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/G162.html
