PDF→EPUB: Remove role="doc-footnote", recommend EPUBCheck.
“[…] when you add a role to an element you change its nature to assistive technologies. So because doc-footnote isn't a list item role, it would strip the li tag of its list item nature and turn it into something more like a div or a p tag. That breaks the list semantics for AT users, so they'd no longer be able to access the list as though it were a list.” <https://github.com/w3c/epubcheck/issues/1018#issuecomment-809376951>
