Betsie is a bull in a sledgehammer/nut approach to accessibility from a time when that was the only way to crack the nut. Now, someone has invented the nutcracker. Of course not everyone yet has a nutcracker so we still need the sledgehammer, but it's role is increasing. What Betsie does - specifically its rearranging of navigation to be at the bottom - was necessary for the time, but that rearrangement can be done within the HTML very easily (that's how I build my own webpages - so when you turn off CSS, content at the top, navigation at the bottom). Conversion of colours etc, is even easier with CSS. These things can be automatically built into a page without needing standalone parsers.
