I can only assume that none of the drafting committee has any
experience in assisting disabled players. This law needs to be amended,
allowing a player to SORT the played hand into suits, rather than
shuffle it, if doing so helps the player at the next table overcome
physical limitations - make it subject to the TD's approval if you
like.
