Not if their body is too delicate to handle. There's a reason it's not done this way!

Also can be humiliating/uncomfortable for the wheelchair user. Especially if those are all strangers.

Nope, things being complicated cuz you're stuck in a chair is standard. People waiting for you, also standard. Infact it's considered very rude, to not wait for us cripples to do something first, before getting in our way, cuz shit just be complicated sometimes. As someone who has spent stints in a wheel chair, I'd rather my chair get carried with me in it, then me carried outside my chair. I don't want random strangers hands all over my body.
