Do we want to keep this to the succinct primary accessibility needs? Or include all relevant accessibility needs?
Do we want to include the additional benefits that are not particular accessibility needs? And if so, do we want to clearly distinguish? Do we want that in a more info section at the bottom?
Note that in the "In Brief" sections in the Understanding docs, we chose to keep to the succinct primary accessibility issue, and let the rest of the page provide more info. For some topics, we have a good pointer to the info elsewhere -- e.g., in the Tutorials or media resource. For some topics, maybe not.
Example: Who depends on Captions? has:
For captions, we have a good resource that lists those and even more benefits: Used by People With and Without Disabilities and Benefits to Organizations
For cases such as captions where we have a good place to point to, I'm leaning towards sticking to the easy to understand accessibility needs, and pointing elsewhere for the additional benefits. Yet, making that clear and maybe in the Why it's important section. e.g.,
For topics that don't have a good pointer, I lean towards including the additional benefits in a More Info section (possibly combined with Learn More?
