What functional limitation does the device mitigate?
3. Physical accommodation
Can the device be physically accommodated in the environment?
4. Actual direct threat
Is there a genuine direct safety threat based on actual risk, not speculation?
5. Narrow restrictions
Can restrictions be environment-specific rather than categorical?
6. Effective alternatives
Are alternatives equally effective, or do they impose avoidable burden?
7. Documentation
Is the decision documented and reviewable?
