If you don't want to own the experience for assistive technology users, then you can't call yourself a #UXDesigner, you are a visual designer. #UX means #UserExperience and that includes the experience of all users not just people like you. #a11y

Outsourcing your user research is like outsourcing your vacation. It gets the job done, but it’s unlikely to have the desired effects.
