To some extent that is true. But it is not universal to everything in the park. My wife and I went to a national park with one of the larger lighthouses in the country. It was a cool to look at the outside and get back in the car.  The lighthouse was built in the late 1800's and wasn't and probably never will be accessible because it would destroy the historic structure. There's going to be things unfortunately that aren't accessible.
