> But accessibility is critical.

Totally agree. I once did some mandatory training at work (on avoiding discrimination, ironically) where some of the facts needed for a good score were only presented in the audio track and were thus inaccessible to deaf people. I'm partially deaf without my hearing aids so am sensitive to this issue.

Another place where I worked had the bays in its car park marked with a colour of brick that was the same as the main colour if you had a certain type of colour blindness. It's actually how most of us found out that one of our colleagues was colour blind, when he got a complaint about his apparently inconsiderate parking (usually taking two spaces because he couldn't see the markings).
