Yeah, we agree!

Actually, I think two things about game accessibility. First I think it's 
great that instead of trying to limit ourselves by defining what game 
accessibility is and defining all the things that make games FULLY 
ACCESSIBLE (in capitals, yes ;), we are (first) looking at what things would 
make games MORE ACCESSIBLE! This is not only more useful, but I also think 
it is very clever, since it doesn't immediately takes the point of view that 
"ALL games CAN be made accessible FOR ALL". I personally believe game 
accessibility is much more difficult than web accessibility, since web 
accessibility doesn't cover 'user experience' and I think game accessibility 
should cover that since games are about experience (without it, it's just 
"interactive information" or someshit similar ;) ).
I also think this approach is much more kind to the game industry, in the 
case an industry which is even more likely to develop its own accessibility 
standards...

Greets,
