I think this case is only valid when button itself does not have any text content in it, secondly this code can be avoided by setting iconAutoAriaLabel to Icon.autoAriaLabel.ON

the icon attribute doesn't seem like it would ever be satisfactory alt text. Looking at the list of icons these are not suitable as alt text. Perhaps as a fallback you could space separate instead of camel case - but even then these wouldn't be localized so it would still seem like a bad idea.
