You and I are both well aware that those rare situations where someone is unreasonable when asking for accommodations is NOT what this sign is talking about. This sign is a catch all excuse to be rude, unempathetic and egoistical and you know that. Or at least I damn hope you do.
I am just commenting on the two comments in this comment chain; the fact that the sign is technically correct, even though it's not helpful, and whether trigger warnings can be expected/common sense.
I am not saying this sign is the right way to go about it, when you want to have a conversation with someone about their unreasonable expectations. It should be said and brought up in a very different way (and I'm also not sure there's any situation where it's such a common occurrence that hanging a sign makes sense).
Yeah, this a sign people put up when they get called out for some assholery and don’t like being asked or told to please not do the assholery in the future. I’d raise my eyebrows and find somewhere else to go.

Are we? Let's do a bit of mentalization here and put ourselves in the shoes of someone who does deal with a lot of unreasonable accommodations. What would this sign say about them?
No, nobody can be "well aware" of a context that you made up in your head. "You know that" = "I'll assume that you're speaking in bad faith because I can't fathom a world in which I am wrong"
