if you have disabilities that make you unable to learn in one style then of course some styles won’t work for you. Near-sighted people who can’t afford glasses already experience reduced performance in school. People like me who have Auditory Processing Disorder kind of get fucked in the ass if the teachers don’t have any additional resources other than speaking in front of class.

But generally, learning styles was disproven. The difference of retention between ones “preferred learning style” and the control was insignificant, but learning in varied styles is better than only absorbing it in only one way. Relating information to another also helps more.
