Reproduction

When using the mat-grid-tile element, Angular inserts a "figure" tag on page render. This can cause confusion for screen readers reading aloud the "figure" tag before reading the content inside the tile.

Expected Behavior

Content inside the mat-grid-tile should render as the programmer enters it, rather than inserting a "figure" tag. (If the programmer wishes to surround the content in a figure, they can enter that themselves).

Actual Behavior

The mat-grid-tile component renders a "figure" tag around the ng-content inserted by the programmer, causing unwanted behavior with screen readers.

Environment

• Angular: 9
• CDK/Material: 9.2.4
• Browser(s): Chrome
