"Nowhere in there did anyone invent anything to make email addresses more accessible to people."
That's not what it says ... it says trying to make technology more accessible to people. user@hostname email addresses, as opposed to the old UUCP bang paths, does indeed make technology more available to people. (FWIW, I worked on the ARPANET at UCLA and was there when the IMP arrived in 1969, so I do know a little something about this topic.)
