you can’t even walk to the store in most places

I’d imagine walking to the store in a wheelchair to be incredibly difficult.

Technically in common disability parlance the motion of movement in a wheel chair is still considered “walking” just like listening to an audiobook is considered “reading” for visually impaired people.

Basically it accepts the whatever means you get to the end product as being a synonyms with the verbs those used by abled people.

Learned this from my librarian buddies.
