I have a belief that a focus on accessibility often will be a net benefit for society as such. For one thing, web sites designed to be universally accessible will often render better across different platforms and devices (not much of a problem today - but I consider the late 90s and early 2000s as the "dark age" of the web, "impressive" web sites were built, but they were only "impressive" as they were demonstrated on computers with the right screen resolution, a LAN-connection to the server, some exact version of Microsoft Internet Explorer, etc - viewed on any other platform or with low bandwidth, they would fail).

On Steem there is a tendency to post screenshots whenever one wants to represent text from some other web site or application. This is bad, bad, bad - even though OCR software exists, I guess those screenshots can't be read by people like @aiyumi. It also can't be collected by search engines, it may be unreadable from some mobile browsers, etc, etc.
