It's possible to make a site very "navigable" but poorly "accessible." And,
I suppose, the reverse is true as well. Are these on a separate track or
should they necessarily be integrated?

If you continue to polygonically "smooth" the surface of a
hexagon/pentagon/etc you tend to approach a circle. You put a big "D" in it
(for Design) and it's connected to everything everywhere, as it should and
does. That way, you can concentrate not on geometry but on solving real-life
problems, unless of course you were writing a book. :-)
