Accessibility IS hard.
It feels sometimes like nearly everyone involved thinks they'll just read a few good blog posts and know how to make sites accessible. Then the struggle is due to not having read good enough blog posts.
Everyone wants a quick "fix" to a lack of education. Nothing replaces familiarizing one's self with primary source specifications, and most crucially, spending significant time trying out real screen readers.
