I'm very disappointed the lorry doesn't have a "choo Choo I'm a train" sign on the front.

You can read the article nominated for Best Gaming Accessibility Journalism at the link below:

Don’t Call Your Video Game “Accessible For Everyone”

access-ability.uk/2025/07/11/d...
Not only does advertising your game as “Accessible to Everyone” lead to the possibility of making a promise to a disabled user that you cannot fulfill, but perhaps worse it sends the message to certain groups of disabled users that you failed to consider them and their needs as valid when promising universal accessibility. You risk the perception that you, for example, don’t consider gaze tracker users as part of “everyone”. You risk making a sightless player with moderate hearing loss feel like you don’t consider them as someone who is worth consideration. Whether you forgot a group of disabled users, failed to consider their existence, or thought of them and disregarded them as unimportant to support, a failed promise of universal accessibility is going to sting all the same to those users.
