The IBOT, along with most of Dean's other creations, is definitely not a necessity.

/Naysaying.

I'd hate to point this out to you but Im currently living in a building that has no infrastructure dedicated to wheelchairs. In fact two out of three of my dorms were inaccessible by people with wheelchairs. They simply have stairs and as far as I could tell there was no other way to enter the building otherwise. I've held two jobs where there was no way to get to the second level without using the stairs. I've also held a job where the elevator breaks down on a pretty regular basis and that's a building where college classes are held. Boston's subway system is not entirely handicap accessible which must be a pain in the rear end for people in wheelchairs. Every single kitchen I've ever been in has been designed for someone who can stand up on two legs.
EDIT:Just remembered the fact that people have been tossed from the wheelchairs on Huntington avenue once again because the infrastructure is horrible. I always found it odd why the people were riding down the middle of the road in their wheelchairs but apparently it beats riding on the sidewalk.
