Font for rendering line chart data

Project mention: Linefont: Font for rendering line chart data | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-28

Not to be too negative, but this seems quite inaccessible to anyone using a screen reader or other non-visual output device. Unlike with SVGs or images, there seems to be no way to provide an alternative representation?
Similar to the inaccessibility of icon fonts, but those tend to use private use character codes rather than actual readable text; reading the example page [1] with a screen reader is... not a great experience.
