Headings are not used for ToCs as each header contains several paragraphs, with different formatting and positioning.
Only primitive and amateuric books can use HTML built-in styles.

Where do you get that idea?
Any of it? Who has chapter heads that are "several paragraphs long?"
If you mean that some books have, for example, a chapter number that's left-aligned and then a heading (title) that's centered, and then an epigram that's something else, that's design and layout. Not "a" heading.
If the designer who does that, does it, fine--but that
doesn't mean that the heading style/level shouldn't be properly applied. And yes, that designer might then end up having to manually create his/her TOC...but you're completely missing the point.
Conflating DESIGN with
structure is just muddying the waters.
