Why me? I have enough on my plate already, and starting a discussion
needs neither my consent nor my help.
So feel free to start such a discussion.

But you didn't request these features to be turned on by some
"Accessibility" knob, like other applications do. You requested them
by default, or at least that was my understanding.
The decision to add an "Accessibility" toggle, which is off by
default, is a much easier one, and given that someone writes the code,
should be a no-brainer to install. No discussion is needed for that.
