This is off the top of my head so may not be fully accurate:
1.) You can get the hyperlinks to be numbered. I find that helpful.
2.) You can get the cursor to track. That's critical, of course.
But, I think that's about it. The chain does not do the table
serialization thing like the cat does, therefore you get islands of text
on screen that someone can see belong together, but that reads very
poorly with a screen reader's basically left to right and top to bottom
reading strategy.
Also, not all javascript pages will work. I'm sorry, I don't recall all
the details. Hope this helps, though.
