Yup, definitely agree. That's why I'd say it would make so much more
sense to either give the plugin away for free in an un-restricted
version, or charge users (rather than site owners) a nominal fee, and
then make proper money from offering accessibility consultancy, web
design services, etc.

As a person with a disability who has to pay ridiculously overly-priced
prices for "accessibility" - whether wheelchairs, assistive technologies,
blah, blah, blah - it is nice to think that some site owners share the cost
of "accessibility".
