Your street chalk is art, and isn’t required by anyone.

But if you want to order online, then you increasing often have to interact with a website. Brick and mortar have employees that could help you, websites do not.

The reverse of this situation would be telling people with wheelchairs that they should only shop online instead of expecting accessible stores.

If modifying your shop to be accessible to everyone is not profitable for you, then you shouldn't be doing it. All this law does is require businesses to spend more money before they can operate. For now, this will hurt the economy more than it helps it.
