    It does hurt some people, those who can not use it just because it's
    not accessible.  It hurts them because it's excluding them, even if
    unvoluntarily.

It does not hurt them.  They are no worse off than they would be
if the program had never existed.  It fails to serve them, but that
is not the same as hurting them.
