Sure, that will always be the case with streetcars, unless they run on the outside lanes of the roads (which they won't). Challenges with accessibility in streetcars will always be a concern, but as SebC said, it should in no way impede the full discussion of streetcar vs. bus. Toronto is already using these streetcars and wouldn't be doing so if the deemed it was a total, preventative hinderance to accessibility.
