There is a fine distinction but efficiency is to some extent a part of
accessibility. Being able  to 'get to' content or basic accessibility is not
enough if one cannot perform a task with reasonable efficiency. Else there
is no 'equivalent facilitation'.
That is why the skip nav provision or several  checkpoints of WCAG 1.0  are
in the realm of accessibility and not usability.
