UIAlertAction.isEnabled = false Has No Visual Effect on iOS 26 (Action Still Looks Enabled)

Hi all,

I'm running into a UIKit issue specific to iOS 26 (Xcode 26 Beta 4) where UIAlertAction buttons that are disabled using .isEnabled = false do not appear visually disabled. The alert still shows the action with full opacity and default styling, making it look like the button is tappable — even though it isn't.

❗ Issue: On iOS 26, disabled actions in UIAlertController no longer appear dimmed or inactive. This is a visual regression compared to iOS 17 and earlier, where disabled actions would automatically appear grayed out and visually distinct.

Let's consolidate this post with your other thread that appears to have the same remarks.
