It's easier to disable an effect (it's usually an engine boolean) than it is to run hundreds of thousands of miles of fiber optic cable. We can disable an effect in a patch cycle - and meaningfully improve accessibility for players. Literally millions of people watch streamers play games. There are, at the time of me writing this comment, 4,800,000 people watching twitch right now (according to TwitchTracker) - that excludes Youtube Live, Facebook Live, Steam, etc. Many games (Five nights at Freddy's, Minecraft, Fall Guys) owe their extreme popularity to streamers. The issues here apply even to recordings of your game. If you are ignoring streamers, you are ignoring a major part of your base, and an extremely public part of your base at that. You're also actively telling your players who need accessibility tools that you don't value them enough to invest some time over basic settings tweaks (that you should probably have anyways...).
