The default UI/UX tries to fit the need of the majority. Blind people 
for example may have difficulties to understand the content of the screen.
The screen is mostly based on context of element and blind people have 
only access to a linear representation of the screen.

When we have a person with difficulties to have a mental representation 
of a UI/UX it's really useful to adapt it to fit exactly his cognitive 
situation, at least to let one the time to learn things to go to 
standards at one's rhythm.

Best regards.

ps: I talk about blind people because it's what I'm aware of because I'm 
myself a low-vision person.
