Neither of those apply on the WWW as a whole, which is a heterogenous browsing environment. Accessibility warnings serve to help document authors ensure they cater for all readers - including minorities to whom none of a set of specific situations (such as you enumerated) apply. OTOH that particular warning may(?) have outlived its usefulness now that browsers in real life give their users more control. -- Nick Kew
