In fairness, none of the options present in Control Center are exclusive to it. Everyone one of the options is available in System Preferences (with full keyboard support) or elsewhere.

Yeah, instead of having keyboard users do the normal thing to check their WiFi, interacting with the menubar, they should instead, every time, 1. Open System Settings; 2. Type Cmd-F; 3. type "wifi"; 4. press Tab 2 times

You mean like every other OS? On Windows, you have to press the Win button, go to Settings, tab over to Network, tab over to Wifi.

If you were such a keyboard expert, you'd know that you can 1. Press Cmd+Space 2. Type 'wifi' 3. Do whatever you need to do.

Other operating systems having a bad accessibility story is pretty poor justification for Apple backsliding on theirs.

It's not a backslide, though. Control Center has never been accessible by keyboard and neither is the menu bar unless an app has a specific shortcut key.
