Could you instead make the textfield controlled and reset the value on button click that way?

There is another problem with not having a context for the text field, is that there is no way to access the validation functions. Such as commitValidation() or properties such as displayValidation.
But I feel like there must be a reason why some components have state contexts and some not.

Honestly, this one is legacy. We wish we'd made a state hook for it and that would typically be what we'd expose. We could still add it, but we'd need to pull specific parts out of the object returned by the aria hook since that's where the state lives at this point in time. We couldn't add a state hook without making a breaking change adding a required parameter to the aria hook.
