I've had a non technical user ask me how to convert a document to PDF so that it's not editable or copypasteable by someone else. And also ask me how to edit a pdf. PDF is used as DRM by obfuscation by non technical users, it's a sort of emergent phenomenon that occurs hundreds of times per day. And it turns out it's a quite effective tool at that, if anything it associates a cost to editing/copying/automatic processing. In terms of technically compliant, a PDF is as much of a sensible requirement as USB or String types. It checks the box, but it's likely that there's a lot of additional work into integrating two systems that input and ouput these envelope protocols/encoding, because they are purposefully too broad.
