Girl here, same question. I'd like to be able to play without being noticed and a lot of software is pretty crap or only works well pitching up, not down.

That's the trick with movie adaptions... no data here but I'm going to assume that most visualizers are way more picky with the details of adaptions or might like/dislike on completely trivial grounds because things didn't match up to the small things their heads came up with when there was a lack of information. For example, when I'm thinking of a character that's never been created in art or a photo they might have freckles or have a certain hair style or show teeth when they smile, my brain naturally adds and differentiates based on people I've met, experiences I've had, even fictional tropes. Note that the level I do it is afaik overkill but then that's why I'm an artist, storyboarders are the ultimate level though.
I can't stand the HP ones myself, the only characters that looked like my initial thoughts were Snape and Sirius probably because they were very well described.

It's like growing taller before you hit puberty, the rate of change is so slow and steady that you never notice. The majority of people who have sight problems don't know something is wrong until either they try on glasses for a joke (like OP, it happens a lot), or they fail a task that someone else has no problem with and come to the conclusion it's to do with their eyes... which can take a while because humans are very good at figuring out how to get around obstacles without acknowledging or addressing a root issue. I couldn't see the whiteboard in sixth grade when I was put at the back of the room, told my teacher and asked if I could be put closer to the front and he suggested I get my eyes checked. This was after months of pulling at the skin around them and squinting because it brought it just into focus enough to see maybe half the letters.

I have a feeling with the wheelchair issue that you being a lot lower down physically is part of it. When someone is significantly shorter (like, waist height) than us there's this tiny flick in the brain that they must be not full grown, or a child, and even people who normally aren't twats might double take once in a while. Not excusing that behaviour though especially the ones who back away immediately just because the chair is there.
