Not to be that guy (honestly idc) but a11y is cool but it’s just a tick box.

Maybe for a Netflix or some other widely used consumer app it is essential because the # of affected users might be significant.

For a 2ish million user SaaS I used to work on, nobody ever cared enough because the chance that someone is going to use a11y features to do their work was extraordinarily rare, in fact probably zero considering the domain. We did enough to cover our bases, maybe 80-90% of the way there, but that’s it.

I mean emotionally I get it. But it’s a business at the end of the day. For a popular consumer app it makes sense to invest the time and effort. For others, it really is not.
