Add 20 years to Ted Bundy, and now you have a man who can plausibly claim to have physical restrictions without needing to hinder and distinguish himself with slings or crutches or bandages or whatever. He can look perfectly average, but people will still be more inclined to believe a claim like "I have a bad back" or "I have a trick knee".
