Stairs, Elevators and Wheel chairs?

After watching the live stream and the section on Stairs, and Guest updates...
I'm wondering about the feasibility of adding a "Disabled" guest group?.. Wheel Chair bound guests..
.
Though process here....
Dumping stairs down is all well and good, but most parks have either Elevators or alternate sloped paths for those who cant deal with steps.
Adding these guests can create a really fun problem solving element to the game as the Guest becomes more and more frustrated as they find they cant reach specific areas of the park.
 
Would certainly add the the economics and 'happiness model' id disabled people were catered for, the more accessible the park, the better, etc.

Then after they get frustrated enough we can play the sequal planet litigation.
 
This is still a video game, therefore it doesn't have to be wheelchair accessible.
I would like to see elevators in the game though, mainly to get to high places or to different floors.

True, but it's also a "Simulation game" and some people still consider the act of designing a wheelchair accessible park a fun challenge in of itself... So yeah having elevators and wheelchair ramps as things to incorporate and consider in the virtual park design wouldn't really be that bad... (I figure that since it IS a game, that if we get handicapped peeps there still wouldn't be any serious consequences to not having a wheelchair accessible park beyond loosing their business because of there being nothing to enjoy, or maybe a protesters event where a mob of peeps stand in the entrance waving signs around and making nearby peeps unhappy...)

Yes I know it's a game so the question boils down to: Will the added challenge and possible downsides surrounding the idea be fun.

Imagine if for instance wheelchair bound peeps still would move around your park, but without a ramp your workers would have to help them up the stairs with all the humor and charm of people moving a heavy load up and down stairs would entail... And then the wheelchair ends up bouncing comically down the stairs when one of the workers stops to wipe the sweat off of their brow, complete with panicked "Oh crud!" expressions and an appropriate decrease in happiness in the person stuck in the chair... (Depending on the landing at the bottom of the stairs and the personality of the peep in the wheelchair their reaction could range from "Seeing stars", to "Death glaring" at the worker that dropped them down the stairs, to an excited "Can I do that again?! That was FUN!"
