Should we or shouldn't we?
My answer is we should (sod the cost)!
My point is that if you're going to be standards complaint, writing your own UI framework is a whole lot of work. Heck, I remember just trying to apply SAA standards to 5250 applications back in the 90s. I'd hate to have to try and write my own i18n/a11y capable framework. So if your goal is compliance, you;re probably better off using somebody else's framework.

By all means we should strive for compliance.
