What happened?

I run this CLI command:

 lighthouse https://www.walmart.com/ --onlyCategories=seo

And the console output includes this:

  LH:status Getting artifact: DevtoolsLog +7s
  LH:status Getting artifact: Accessibility +0ms
  LH:status Getting artifact: AnchorElements +210ms
  LH:status Getting artifact: LinkElements +30ms

What did you expect?

I don't think the SEO audits depend on the accessibility artifact, so I would not expect it to be collected. It's also not listed in filterResistantArtifactIds.
