OK.

Though it has been discussed on-list that this policy could be seen as
forbiding assistive technologies, but that this was not the intent of
the Gentoo Council's wording.
Didn't they?  Do you have a source for that?

As someone who was present at the initital discussion, I can assure that
banning accessibility helps was not the intention.

The original content is CC-BY-SA 4.0, and so you need attribution and
a link to the license and a statement that you altered it.

I'll send v4 later.  I have written this, at the bottom:
