It is both. LuaLaTeX is easier as there is dedicated effort from LaTeX maintainers for LuaLaTeX to support PDF tagging and PDF/UA2. However, the existing PDFLaTeX documents may not be easy to convert to LuaLaTeX. So, having a way to produce decent tagged PDF with PDFLaTeX is valuable. During the last meetup Pedro mentioned one simple example - books written in Org mode for pdflatex. They often contain all kinds of pdflatex-specific typographical tweaks and cannot be converted to lualatex. Having a way to make them accessible will be nice. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
