Accessibility is great! As long as it doesn't end up with situations like MIT taking down a ton of old lecture videos because they didn't have the funds to add captions.
There's a lot of real-world situations where mandating accessibility would result in closure. There's no way to make Angel's Landing [0] wheelchair accessible, for instance. (this is very common in the US's national parks, to the point that I'd bet that 3/4ths of them have at least one such trail/location) With situations like that, your choices are to keep it open for some people, or for no people.
