As someone who offten can't manage stairs, but doesn't always look gimpy, I appreciate this.
Also, I appreciate that part of being invisibly disabled really is sometimes having to cheerfully explain to people, "I don't look disabled? Thanks, I try not to go around looking like I can't do stairs, but seriously, I can't. Thanks for your concern! It helps save room in the elevator for me."
