Inaction is a political position in support of the status quo. It is the equivalent of saying "I am fine with this".
Edit to add: Also, accepting the status quo on some things, even if one doesn't think it's ideal, may be necessary to be maximally effective in one's primary area. So my main open-source project in the area of accessibility is maximally permissively licensed (the MIT/Apache dual license typical in the Rust community), is hosted on GitHub, and targets proprietary platforms first, because I care more about accessibility than any of these other things.
I have no problem with this specific decision though.
Thank you for your work on accessibility! :)
