Hi Jason,

Why don't you turn the convincing angle up-side-down? Instead of pulling the
'accessibility' pitch focus on the performance and customizability of having
a CSS-driven navigation (accessibility will follow naturally).

Perhaps you could prepare two versions of a similar looking navigation (one
image one css) and run a performance test. Show the results and hopefully
convince your client to choose wisely?

Only a thought.
