>We already know that talkback has an extreme lack of functionality in terminal emulators on android. But what about Brltty? Has anyone tried this? Any good apps that we can ssh from our phones with?

The problem isn't TalkBack. It's the fettish that console app writers have for 
making the screen look like it's actually a console. What this means is that 
they tend to graphically draw the characters with cool-looking fonts rather 
than just render them as plain text within an accessible text view. Maybe 
there's a usable ssh app out there, but I haven't found one yet. I've been 
thinking of writing one but haven't gotten around to it yet.
