@jscholes What screen readers besides NVDA indicate strikethrough, especially by default? I know NVDA says deleted, which is slightly confusing at first, but having it read out the basic visual indicator of this is a price which has a line through it and this is the new price right next to it is reasonable and works for everyone, as long as there's enough of a semantic space or the screen reader puts one between the font changes to avoid the actual numbers blending. Unsure how this is indicated in Braille, though. Do the tables have an indicator for strikethrough?
