Not true. Using semantic HTML and relying on its implicit ARIA roles allows the browser to construct an accurate AOM tree (Accessibility Object Model) which makes it possible for screen readers and other human interface software to create TOCs and other landmark-based navigation.

Sure, it allows the browser to do that. GP is complaining that even though browsers are allowed to do all that, they typically don't.
The point of the reply was that they actually do. It's just not obvious that they do if you don't use that method yourself.
