Real bullets mess up how cool this thing looks.

OP, at least the US tries. Most places on earth basically say, "can't contribute, get hosed". No wheelchair ramps at all. From the sounds of it, you have things sorted out. I can tell you from my experience living and working in several countries that poo poo sucks everywhere in some flavor or another.

This is something I've heard, but always wondered - the US is relatively accommodating for physically handicapped. It's not perfect, but in general it's pretty good, especially compared to what I've seen. Is there a global standard, and what is it? How do other countries compare - my sample is limited, to be fair. Can someone in a wheelchair easily navigate Iceland? Brazil? Are there handicapped parking spots in Christchurch? Thanks for bringing it up, I appreciate it.
