Claire,

(Scratching my head)

What exactly does "exposed" mean in this case?

If you were running NVDA and did Insert+F7 would it show nothing in terms of headings in the Elements list? That would mean there were no headings, yes?

And if there were available to sighted users something that looked like Headings, perhaps due to varied font sizes, then those users could visually scan the page and go to their desired location quickly while a screen reader user would have to slog through the whole page, top to bottom.
