Yes, it is also worth noting that a 'happy by product' of serving the 
needs of PwD is that we reduce barriers for many, many other users who 
don't have disabilities. _However_ the very act of explicitly designing 
for extremes ensures that the product/service/website etc will work for 
users of AT _and_ these other groups.

Hence the focus on PwD is important IMO.
