Thank you for this post! I think you should definitely cross-post.
Asking for help also puts the responsibility of accessibility on the person who needs it, instead of the people otherwise responsible for the space. We have institutions for building maintenance/management - it just makes sense to incorporate accessibility into those institutions! Plus, like we've talked about before, accessibility has lots of collateral benefits!
