I feel like Storm's answer describes people whose disabilities might make life a little difficult, but mostly different and for them suggesting a cure might be offensive. I feel like Rogue's response describes people whose disability, whether visible or invisible, can make life miserable and would absolutely jump at the chance of a cure.

I get that X-Men started as a metaphor for civil rights, but I had to get that off my chest.
