These arguments are great.

Making a page more accessible doesn't just mean making it easier for people with disabilities to use the page. It means improving the user experience for everyone, including those with disabilities, but also those who do not have them. An accessible UI is a UI that everyone can easily use. It also means making the page more accessible to some kinds of tools, whether those are search engine crawlers, archiving tools, or even ChatGPT.
