I cannot get this line out of my head. It is so lawyerese (no offense, SD) and it doesn't even begin to describe failing to honor someone's civil rights or even admit a problem or take into account the human effect.

I mean, it's not such a big step from that to describing someone with a disability like me as a non-optimal outcome, or thinking about hiring someone with a disability as a non-optimal outcome.
