Tia,
You are right, of course. The idea of the prompt was to make people think through the ramifications of suggesting that someone with a disability must "do their part" -- ESPECIALLY when that involves taking medication -- in order to "earn the right" to have equal access. As you note, not only is it inappropriate to require such invasive actions/procedures, but it flies in the face of civil rights law to suggest that one must do something to QUALIFY for protection.
