I totally agree about the blind community. You forgot the third group. We
have the ACB, NFB and those who don't care and won't join either. I'm seeing
more of those. However, no, F12 isn't the standard. Window-Eyes uses
Insert+T. Should Insert+T read the title as with NVDA or say the time?
Fortunately, that's why hotkeys can easily be modified. As I said, nothing
is stopping you or anyone from developing an addon or plugin to customize
hotkeys to act like another screen reader.

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Again, a little give can
sometimes be a very good thing. Honestly, nerds all seem to have this thing
where they think their way is the best way. This is how distro religious
wars start. But of all the community of nerds I am associated with, blind
nerds are the worst. There is absolutely no compromise, no willingness to
work together, nothing! In fact, it's ubiquitous in the blind community. We
even have 2 different advocacy groups, the NFB and the ACB. And the health
of the blind community as a whole can just go to heck for all anyone cares.
Drives me crazy. The reason why F12 should give you the time is that that
the standard. Because people expect F12 to give them the time. It's that
simple.
