Another concern is "numbers." If you take any given segment of the disabled population, blind people, deaf people, low vision persons, screen reader users, etc., its numbers are going to be relatively low compared to the whole. So, I think people are afraid that if sites have specific numbers, "I only had five screen reader users last month," for example, it will work against us, and not for us in the long run.
