I think it probably does

That makes most sense, just as a multimedia site built in the US, in
English, requires you to be able to read and understand English.
That's basically the thing with languages :)

A sign language comparison is the same. There is too much
computational linguistics research to be done before we can translate
US English to NGT (Dutch Sign Language, which I'm studying and trying
to master).

So yeah, basically, a very sensible accessibility statement.
