I fucking hate these kind of bullshit objections.

People who felt that role playing was an opportunity to play an idealized self - whether that was someone who was stronger, faster, smarter, able to speak three languages, see in the dark, etc. - were initially bewildered as to why a disabled person would choose to play a character that needed a wheelchair. They had their minds blown when they came to understand that for many people who are disabled their idealized self isn't someone who doesn't need to use a wheel chair, but someone for whom using a wheel chair is not a disability.

The minis are posed kinda silly to me but then most minis are so who would complain? More relevant would be any in game effects of such a device (does it count as an attuned magic item, is there a penalty for its use, or is it a visual skin only?). I certainly don't see an issue with a handicapped person using it, might sideeye a person who does it to "feel like I have a disability" though.
It does bring up some world building questions. Typical Forgotten Realms type world you'd think it would just be a matter of enough gp to buy a fix for paralysis. Same with blindness and other major impairments IIRC. But hey, player choice trumps all, right? So long as the DM and the group agree with it why not?
