I deal with accessibility building codes for a living. It's amazing how often I tell someone a code requirement and they say it's the most ridiculous thing they've ever heard of. Then I explain how the requirement actually removes the architectural barrier and makes the element accessible to people with certain disabilities they hadn't thought of. All of a sudden it's ok.
Why does something have to be ridiculous just because you don't understand it?

At the risk of being too religiousy, the old saying “but for the grace of god go I”, needs to be on the forefront of more people’s minds. Empathy is too often a four letter word.
