The meaning of words will always depend on the context they are used in. Even outside of a court of law, there are still people here who disagree that a person with an occupied hand is still disabled.

That seems like something that will shift towards one or the other as society talks more openly about disabilities.

I'd probably call that a "hands busy" situation rather than a disability situation, but some of the same computer features may be helpful for both situations.
