Re: Very large print = refresh-able braille

Large print with word wrapping is as necessary as refresh-able braille for the same reason.  Why do well meaning accessibility experts claim that well formatted large print is just too hard to provide?
I think that is a great question, and an established orthodoxy I'm very happy to see challenged.

Screen reader's audio interface produces a time based media. This is good for many applications, but all readers need a self paced medium for 

Now there are 40 to 80 character refresh-able braille displays. That is significantly more than a screen magnifier can provide.  Word wrapped text can hit the 40 to 80 character level. At the current time blind users have a better self paced interface than people with low vision.

A lot of people in the WG and accessibility community say that large print is a need but it places too much burden on developers.

That is equivalent to exuding refresh-able braille because of developer difficulty. I does not make sense.

Large print with word wrapping is as necessary as refresh-able braille for the same reason.  Why do well meaning accessibility experts claim that well formatted large print is just too hard to provide?
