I'm actually ok with that if it truly serving the purpose for what a computer should be.
I think those principles would embody the notion that the same thing cannot serve all people equally. Simultaneously, for people to interact, interoperability is required. For example, I don't think everyone should use the same word processor. It is likely that blind people would be served best by a word processor designed by blind people. Interoperable systems would aim to neither penalise or favour users for using a different program for the same task.
I also think for the purpose of piloting a new system I don't mind people chasing whatever aspect of that mission most inspires them. Anything aspiring to be a universal paradigm needs to account for accessibility to have legitimacy in being "for everyone" but that doesn't necessarily have to be the scope when you're starting.
I'd like to think that prioritizing early phase momentum of computing projects leads to more flowers blooming, and ultimately more accessibility-enabled projects in the long run.
