These challenges, experiments, etc. may provide a brief glimpse into what
it's like to have a disability, i.e. mobility, blindness, etc., but several
days or even more can never simulate what it's like for people with
disabilities who know they will never recover from them. The experimenters
know they can always get out of the chair or take off the blindfold.

It's like suggesting that if someone spends a couple or more days behind
bars that they can appreciate what it's like to be in prison serving a life
sentence with no chance of parole.

Not criticizing you or your post, Greg. Just offering a point of view.
