hard returns vs before/after spacing style

Hoping Bevi responds to this!

My habit in word docs is to create various styles with paragraph
before/after spacing. Makes it less likely that hard returns will carry
over the wrong spacing and subsequently I have to comb through the document
making corrections.

As far as PDF/UA is concerned, is there a preference for paragraph spacing
styles or hard returns? (I have a client who only wants default paragraph
style and hard returns.)

I haven't thought about this in a long time!
