Not op, but I share his view and don't think commercial buildings should be forced to accommodate people who are mobility-impaired.

Then you should hope to never become mobility impaired :)

Remember, we are all just temporarily abled and one accident away from needing accomodation from society.

I doubt it would change my opinion though. It's a matter of principle for me.
Exactly. It's like insurance, even if you have no sympathy, you're probably ok paying a little for other people's accidents because you could just as easily have one. Allergens are different, though.
