Bad analogy...
Using m68K-based (old) computer = choice.
Confined to wheelchair = non-choice
% of Linux community using m68k = miniscule
% of public with ambulatory disability = more than miniscule
One rev back from latest software on linux m68k = small hobby problem
Unable to access essential public facilities = big life problem
One can always ride any purported inequality issue like a
hobby horse. Suppose someone claims that all releases should
be held until every package is fully internationalized in, say,
the 50 most popular languages. Why is your m68k position more
legitimate than that one?
