Yep. being the best at parkour and detecting the presence of hidden people better than a sighted person doesn't mean he 'can basically see anyway', because those aren't the skills most often used in daily life. Parkour doesn't help you practice law and good luck trying to read an overhead menu with your super sensitive fingertips.

(Yes, access to voiceover and online shopping/food ordering/lawbooks helps and we could debate forever about the concept of disability but he cannot do 'everything a sighted person can' without the use of assistive technology, stop trying to take away my disabled superhero. )
