I kinda feel like if you have someone who needs unusual accommodations then that's one thing and it's perfectly cool to be upfront about it.

But randomly being like "let's not clap unless it triggers someone" is kind of dumb, because clapping is an extremely normal and expected thing.

It wasn't to avoid triggering people, it was that one of the speakers was deaf and couldn't hear applause. Jazz hands instead of applause works a lot better for deaf stage performers and speakers. Don't forget the Standard, cited newspaper, is part of that wonderful organ of accuracy and neutrality; The Daily BullshitMail group.

Jazz hands look cooler though :3

(I have no real dog in that race, though)

You ever stood on stage? With the stage lighting? No, you can't see clapping unless it is a standing ovation or people are holding their hands over their head. It is also, literally, how sign language for applause is signed.

That actually makes sense. Wow did that get yanked out context.

"Jazz Hands" is also, literally, how sign language parses applause. If you "Jazz Hands" at a deaf performer (hands in the air, is one of the few ways to be seen through stage lighting) you are applauding them in their own language. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-signs/a/applause.htm
