Home title link is redundant and degrades aural experience

In classy/templates/block/block--system-branding-block.html.twig

Right now we provide a title for the logo link:

<a href="{{ path('<front>') }}" title="{{ 'Home'|t }}" rel="home" class="site-logo">

This is a poor accessibility practice as it often repeats the alt text for the logo (which is often titled "home".

It would be better to simply not use the redundant title link.

<a href="{{ path('<front>') }}" rel="home" class="site-logo">
