Hi Dave,
I am not sure I follow the connection between your example, and asking
those using adaptive technology if they are say using Linux at the
command line level, something often needful if you are going to use say
speakup, a rather long standing Linux screen reader, and Linux itself.
Google's definition of access means using their tools, which are, at
least according to the several posts on their accessibility list, far from
consistent, reliable, or functional.

as for the issues with Linux accessibility in general. Speaking personally?
A much better goal would be raising the profile of Linux as a platform widely
used by the public, so that accessibility related surveys and tests will
count those who choose Linux over other things.
The rise of chromebooks in school is probably the harbinger of a move of
quasi-embedded linux from phones to the desktop.
