Moving back a step, the primary reason that legislators pass laws is to get reelected. Suppose that they had required government libraries to buy a large print book whenever available, or set a minimum font size for all paper books. These might or might not be good ideas, but won't be made law solely because they would open Congress up to ridicule and hinder reelection.
