Your points all hit the nail squarely. May I hypothesize the root cause of these points?

Hollywood, idiots they are, seem convinced that anyone with a disability will stop at nothing to be normal again. This is all while failing to comprehend that A) normal does not exist, B) disabilities are not abnormalities to be cured/fixed, and C) many people have disabilities and are very successful in adapting their worlds to fit what ever change in mobility/function/processing they have.

Because of this, they feel no need to provide the backstory, or clarify the reason for the obsession. Because obviously (to the idiots of Hollywood) all people would be obsessed to be 'whole' again.

That's just my view of looking at it, having weighed and measured and debated the idiots of DC comics in re: Oracle for many years. I do love the post here, and hope many read it so they actually THINK about the idiots of Hollywood before it gets worse.
