    The issue lies less with the accessibility itself and more this idea people have that accessibility must mean ultra simplistic or easy.
    Accessible can be hard as nails. The definition means being able to access content.
    Whether or not you can actually clear it has nothing to do with it's accessiblity.

    Savage raiding for example is accessible content for anyone its designed to be that way.
    It's designed in such a way that even if you only have 60-90 minutes you can jump in the raid finder and get ya weekly clear or even just a decent bit of practice.. It's been that way since late heavensward at least. It doesn't require massive time investments of 4-6 hours a night. It is quite possible to log on for just an hour and get a couple of fights done or a bit of practice. The JP side demonstrates this with great success. (the NA side would to if they used raid finder properly and didnt expect carries)

    Yet despite being super accessible the raid teirs get easier and easier, and arguably so does all other content.. right down to dungeons..

    This doesnt make content more accessible. It just makes it less rewarding and less satisfying which is why many players get bored.
    Hence why its a pretty common opinion that 5.0 content has been pretty bland in comparison to previous expansions.

    Accessibility is fine. Its when they over simplify and tone things down as much as they do that it becomes a problem for many players. because thats not making it accessible it's making it braindead boring..
