Hi-

They both deal with programmatic equivalents. 1.3.1 looks at all content,
whereas 4.1.2 applies only to user interface components. There can be
overlap (see failure F42; also in cases where the information is about form
fields such as a question for a group of form fields). 1.3.1 looks at any
relationships between elements that is conveyed visually (tables). 1.3.1
also covers other information conveyed visually, so for example if you have
a weighted word cloud where words used more often are bigger/bolder, that
is visual information that needs to have a way the information is provided
programmatically. 4.1.2 explicitly references changes in the state of user
interface components (open/closed, etc).
