Detlev I'd say the danger of just saying, to simplify, "don't do parallax scrolling or provide a mechanism to turn it off" is that it's overly specific. What if an author, instead of parallax scrolling, does something else (but equally animated and disruptive, like a big zoom-in effect or similar)? Then it would pass the SC, but still cause issues. Keeping the language more general will help cover these scenarios too. P -- Patrick H.
