How is this an accessibility issue? I would even say that disabling js can cause accessibility issues. For example: we use js to generate browser speech synthesis for functional illiterates to be able to read any text.

"bUt ScReEnReAdErS" - yeah no one has them installed because many functional illiterates can't but they know how to open a browser or scan a qr code. With js disabled they would actually have a real disadvantage here.
