One of the key goals in building an accessible experience is to make sure users of assistive technology can browse the page efficiently. Proper usage of h1-h6 headings can really improve the browsing experience for someone on a screen reader, because they help the user quickly create a mental outline for the page content. Combine this with HTML5 landmark elements like main and nav, and the user can take advantage of built-in screen reader feature to quickly jump from one section of the site to the next.
