some people treat accessibility as an abstract, intellectual puzzle.

'Well it would/wouldn't pass wcag because of [obscure detail]'.

The point is how accessible you're making something for disabled people - the spirit, not the letter

@joelanman also why it’s so important to have actual disabled users test your site—does it actually work for real people? WCAG is useful, but the actual real-world impact matters!

@joelanman (with the caveat that if you're tasked with doing an actual WCAG assessment, then the obscure detail and pseudo-legalese thin-slicing stuff sadly matters, but of course it's only the bare minimum and not related to real accessibility)
