How do you check for the equivalent of ‘deceptive design’ for coding in software?

I don’t know if this is the right place to ask, but StackOverflow seems to only accept coding related questions, so this is the next best place I can find.
In UX Design, there is the concept of ‘deceptive pattern’ where the user can be intentionally led to do something that may be harmful to them without their knowledge. Of course, this surfaces as a design decision that is implemented in code and on the interface (which drives the user’s actions).
However, I read this example about Grammarly’s Browser Extension implementation, where some code is inserted without user knowledge that impacts the way the website or application behaves. So I wonder if there is an equivalent of this in coding (i.e. a deceptive programming) that can be picked up through normal software testing processes? Is this an area of research and practice in software QA?

Why Can’t I Locate Clickable Element in Choose File Keyword?

I am using Robot framework to automate a file upload to a webpage. I am using the Choose File keyword.
Code notes: ${CONTINUE_BUTTON} is a button at the bottom of the screen, ensuring that the entire bottom of the webpage is visible. The Sleeps are there temporarily so that I know it’s not a timing issue and can watch the automation as it happens.
”’
${uploadFileButton} = xpath://*[@id=”67e21641-340b-4f15-94e2-e5ab7a8532a1″]/div/button
${testDoc} = C:UsersjasonbDocumentsDummyDocumentsTestDocument.pdf

Scroll Element Into View ${CONTINUE_BUTTON}
Sleep 10s
Wait Until Element Is Visible ${uploadFileButton}
Choose File ${uploadFileButton} ${testDoc}
Sleep 10s

”’
I ensured that the Xpath locator is the correct one by searching it in my inspect panel. In the failure screenshots, the button is visible.
When I use the Wait Until Element Is Visible keyword, I get this error:
”’
Element ‘xpath://*[@id=”67e21641-340b-4f15-94e2-e5ab7a8532a1″]/div/button’ not visible
after 5 seconds.

”’
When I don’t use the Wait Until Element is Visible keyword, I get this error:
”’
Element with locator ‘xpath://*[@id=”67e21641-340b-4f15-94e2-e5ab7a8532a1″]/div/button’
not found.

”’
I also tried using a different element that is not the clickable part of the upload file button:
”’
${uploadFileButton} = xpath://*[@id=”67e21641-340b-4f15-94e2-e5ab7a8532a1″]/div/button

”’
And got this error:
”’
Element with locator ‘xpath://*[@id=”67e21641-340b-4f15-94e2-e5ab7a8532a1″]’ not
interactable.

”’
So it can see the non-clickable element, but not the clickable element just a few HTML lines down from it. What is happening here?
