Problem with the software as I see it is they can't agree on what to use and if the deaf are in public no guarantee the TV has either CC or th software available for the deaf.

The vast majority of people who are hard of hearing and/or deaf don't know sign language. That's just it. Unless you were deaf at a very young age or learned it to help a deaf relative, you don't know it. Also note that the closed caption could be added to the live feed, where it's like the chyron on CNN or Fox News. We have the technology to do this right now, it's widely available, and so there you go.
