As a web developer, I would also much rather have my one site accessible for all to reduce the number of websites I need to maintain. Even responsive design requires that you build 4+ designs at once, (at least in the very beginning), so then you'd be adding another when it can really be rolled into the design that's already there. You also run into the question if the "adapted" site has different content/functionality than the non-adapted one. A big concept of web accessibility is that the content for the disabled and non-disabled should be the same. (Think of it like a store. There's not a whole separate building just for wheelchair users. The main building has been adapted to serve all.)
