Hmm, I'm not able to reproduce this and I don't think this is a deploy blocker - @tylerkaraszewski - do you agree?

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Pointer cursor shows instead of text cursor when hovering over the code block

What is the root cause of that problem?

We removed the role 'text' and use 'presentation' instead(from the PR #24482)
But we're still use 'text' below to set the cursor

App/src/components/Pressable/GenericPressable/BaseGenericPressable.tsx

Line 135 in a63a896

getCursorStyle(shouldUseDisabledCursor, [rest.accessibilityRole, rest.role].includes('text')),

Also we replaced the accessibilityRole with role in the same PR, but we're still using accessibilityRole below

App/src/components/Pressable/GenericPressable/index.tsx

Line 14 in dee9b31

role={props.accessibilityRole as Role}

This is the root cause

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should use the CONST.ACCESSIBILITY_ROLE.TEXT instead of `text' here

App/src/components/Pressable/GenericPressable/BaseGenericPressable.tsx

Line 135 in a63a896

getCursorStyle(shouldUseDisabledCursor, [rest.accessibilityRole, rest.role].includes('text')),

And remove this line

App/src/components/Pressable/GenericPressable/index.tsx

Line 14 in dee9b31

role={props.accessibilityRole as Role}

This works as expected

Result
