Of course the usage is valid, just not in every day language (vs legal) and=

If this is the description of the button then probably?

Assuming the layout is

[ [Name/Number]   [=F0=9F=93=9E] ]

I'd expect the row to be read something like so

"row Jane button Call"

Of course I'm sure the a11y people have a better answer here
