I wonder how you justify your use of the word "huge" here, given that it'll most likely be far better than most landing pages out there and not everyone will use the problematic components.

I think this comment makes a pretty clear case for it:

For me personally, the accessibility issues would be with elements used out of their usual role.
For example: When I, blessed with being sighted at this time, but without a mouse, ask my browser to identify the clickable/actionable elements on the page, it mis-identifies both unclickable elements as clickable, and clickable elements as unclickable.
I would call that a serious usability issue. And if I was not sighted, using a screen-reader, I would be very confused indeed by this landing page.
I agree that whether this qualifies as a "huge" usability issue is indeed a matter of opinion. I would certainly argue that it is a huge usability issue.
