tl;dr: phrasing required accommodations as a statement of fact and not a request - e.g. going from "I cannot make phone calls for disability reasons, could we continue via email?" to "I cannot make phone calls for disability reasons, but I can answer your questions via email." - reduces the odds that abled people try to argue with the accommodations
not to zero, of course, but reduces.
Oh hi, everybody I know.
