Secondly, deafness is a natural state in many working humans. It is a natural state, and those who are deaf would not say they have a disability.

Did I say it wasn't natural? Someone may say they don't have a disability because they are deaf, the fact is they do. It doesn't mean they are any less of a person than anyone else or they can't lead very successful lives.
Disability: anything that disables or puts one at a disadvantage:
His mere six-foot height will be a disability in professional basketball.
I know you aren't supporting this idea, but to even suggest that you can see their point of view is, just really, I don't know what. It makes no sense what so ever.
