Disagree -- the web platform itself is pretty solid. Websites made decades ago are still accessible. The tooling that exists today will probably last much shorter.

Right. Apart from Flash, Java applets, and the old MS alternative. Those websites aren't accessible in practice, the technologies they're based on are dead or dying.

Those weren't accessible to begin with, not even back then :)
