I have a 2000 Accord EX coupe and my horn doesn't necessarily work
when I press down on it. Sometimes it does if I press hard enough, or
find the right spot, or both. Does the horn switch on this car tend
to develop a short in some predictable way? Is it something a home
mechanic with some experience can fix reasonably given the airbag
being there?

It might be the horn, not the switch. My 1987 Civic developed this problem.
I bought a new horn (maybe two) and installed it (or them). Had to take off
the bumper cover, but it wasn't that hard.

I don't think I'd try replacing the switch myself, given that the airbag is
right there.
