Not selectable when opacity is 0 in iOS?

I need custom styles for my slider. I couldn't find a library that gave me the control I needed so instead Im making the appearance I need with custom CSS applied to Views which are positioned behind the slider component.

I then need to hide the slider component. If I set `opacity: 0` it's fine on Android but on iOS the slider is un-selectable. Is this a bug or intended behaviour?

Reproduce the slider behavior on iOS and Android with the component styled at opacity: 0, using the custom styling setup described in the issue. Compare whether the control remains selectable on each platform, then confirm whether the difference is intentional or identify the component behavior that needs changing.
